1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh chives, minced
1/8 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions

Notes
Always shred your cheese fresh — it makes a big difference in texture. Let the dip chill for 30 minutes so the flavors can meld. Use full-fat mayo for the richest, creamiest result.
