Asiago Cheese Dip

This is another great dip to serve with crackers, toast, or various breads. Don't let the Mediterranean connotation prevent you from using this dip on other ethnic breads; I personally like having this topped on pumpernickel bread. This is another quick-fix for unexpected company or just for yourself. The rich flavors and easy preparation will surely make this recipe your personal favorite.
