I'm stealing this top from Momof4. At a recent party, I commented on how awesome her cheesy potatoes were and she shared her secret with me.
Next time you make your cheesy potato recipe, replace part of the sour cream with a container of chip dip. I use Anderson Erickson Party Dip, but I think that's only available in the midwest -- and maybe only in Iowa.
**Updated Note** This dip is more ranch flavored than onion flavored.
Adding this really adds some extra flavor to your normal cheesy potatoes. I'll never make them without it again. It works for me!
