Turkey Cheese Dip

Can't find Colby-Jack cheese? Monterey Jack or Mexican Four-Cheese Blend works well, too.

Serve the bread you tore out of the bread bowl for dipping, along with crackers and celery, until you've eaten enough to tear into the bowl itself.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups shredded Colby-Jack, plus more for topping
  • 2 Tbsp. freshly grated Parmesan
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup diced turkey
  • 1 round loaf sourdough bread
  • 1/2 bunch chives, diced (for garnish, optional)

Directions

    1. Step 1Preheat oven to 350°. In a large mixing bowl, mix cheeses, onion, garlic, mayonnaise and turkey until just combined, then set aside.
    2. Step 2Carve the top of the sourdough bread off using a serrated knife, being careful not to cut through to the bottom of the loaf. Pull off the piece of bread, creating a 'lid' to the dip, and use your hands to tear out the inside of the bread, forming a bowl.
    3. Step 3Pour the cheese dip into the bread bowl, and top with additional Colby-Jack and a light sprinkle of chives. Bake for 20 minutes, or until cheese on top has melted and turned a light, golden brown.
    4. Step 4Chop the bread bowl 'lid' and pieces you tore out of the bowl into bite-sized bits. Serve alongside the dip.
