Instructions
- Keeping ingredients separate, dice your onions and mushrooms and measure out remaining ingredients.
- Bring a 9-12 inch cast iron skillet to medium-high heat with 1 TBSP oil.
- Add chopped onions and a pinch of salt and cook for 10 minutes, stirring around the 5 minute mark.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for an additional 10 minutes until onions are golden brown. Stir as needed to prevent burning.
- Add your garlic and mushrooms and stir until softened.
- Season with parsley, salt, pepper, thyme, and allspice and stir in your cream cheese and greek yogurt. Mix well.
- Stir in your grated havarti cheese and top with an additional 3 ounces of cheese. I used 2 oz mozzarella and 1 oz of parmesan cheese, but any combo of your favorite cheeses will work as well! You could use extra havarti and a little parm, or even mozzarella and fontina, gruyere, etc...
- Top with extra cheese if desired (a little extra cheese is always welcome around here!) then add a pinch of red pepper flakes.
- Set oven to BROIL on HIGH and add your skillet. Broil until dip is hot and bubbly, approx. 2 minutes, keeping an eye on the dip as it browns fairly quickly.
Notes
- No cast iron skillet? No problem! This dip can be made in a quality oven-safe stainless steel pan or use any pan of your choosing and transfer the mixture to a casserole dish to bake.
- Bonkers for bacon? It would make an excellent topper for this dip!
- If making the dip in advance, transfer to a baking/casserole dish and allow to cool. Cover and keep refrigerated until ready to bake, which should take about 35 minutes (covered with foil so the cheese doesn't over-brown) at 350 degrees F. Once hot and bubbly, remove foil and switch oven to BROIL for about a minute to brown the cheese. The last step is optional but delicious!
