I love this dip and it’s one of my favorites to bake when we’re watching football or just sitting at the table chatting over some pita chips. To keep calories low, maintain portion control of about 3 tablespoons. Best to put a little on your plate rather than dipping and double dipping from the bowl. Makes 16 servings of 3 tablespoons each.

1/2 pkg. 8 oz fat-free cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup grated fat-free parmesan cheese

2 tsp lemon juice
1 onion, thinly sliced
2 tsp minced garlic
Salt and pepper to taste
Red pepper to taste
