Baked Vidalia Onion Dip




This is the first of a few appetizers I made for the party. The recipe called for it to be baked, but I didn't have access to an oven, so I put it in a crockpot.

2 tbls. butter
3 large vidalia onions, coarsely chopped                           
8 oz. shredded Swiss cheese (I used closer to 10 oz.)
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
1 (8oz.) can sliced water chestnuts, drained and chopped
1/4 cup dry white wine
5 cloves of  garlic, minced
1 tsp. hot sauce
salt to taste

1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add onion, and saute' 10 minutes or until tender.
2. Stir together shredded Swiss cheese and next 5 ingredients, stir in onion, blending well. Spoon mixture into a lightly greased 2 quart baking dish.
3. Bake at 375 for 25 minutes, and let stand 10 min. Serve with tortilla chips or crackers. Makes 18 to 20 appetizer servings.

Happy 4th of July!
