Great dip. It was a hit on our Christmas Eve appetizer buffet! I may try to increase the cheese content and add spinach.
My favorite cheese!
I am going to have to make this version with the last of the fontina that I smoked, it would be awesome.
I made a cheese dip for a football party over the weekend and wasn't wowed by it=/ Maybe I should try this one this weekend!
It does look creamy. I've never bought fontina. Sounds great.
Do you think this would work in a fondue pot?
Yuuumy! I love artichoke dips
I really love hot dips (especially ones with artichoke in them). This looks great!
This looks wonderful! It'll be perfect at the Super Bowl party.
