- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 sprigs of thyme
- 1 cup quark sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 1 green onion thinly sliced

- 1 tablespoon juice of a lemon

Instructions
- Heat non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add butter and olive oil. Once butter is melted, add the sliced onions and sprigs of thyme. Sprinkle a pinch of salt on the onions to draw out the moisture and help soften the onions. Saute the onions, stirring frequently for about 40 minutes until the onions are a deep golden brown color.
- Discard the thyme and let the onions cool.
- Mix the caramelized onions, sour cream or yogurt, green onions, zest of lemon, lemon juice and salt and pepper in a medium bowl until well combined.
- Serve with crunchy peppers, celery, carrots, potato chips, thin crisps or your favorite crackers.
