Ingredients

  • 1 round bread loaf (sourdough or any crusty bread)
  • 1 cup grated Asiago cheese
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Vegetable sticks, crackers, or bread pieces for serving

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cut off the top quarter of the bread loaf to create a lid. Hollow out the center of the bread, leaving about 1 inch of bread on the sides and bottom.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the grated Asiago cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, minced garlic, chopped parsley, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
  4. Pour the dip mixture into the hollowed-out bread bowl, spreading it evenly. Place the bread lid back on top.
  5. Wrap the filled bread bowl in aluminum foil, ensuring it is tightly sealed. Place the foil-wrapped bread bowl on a baking sheet.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the dip is hot and bubbly.
  7. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes to lightly toast the bread.
  8. Serve the Asiago Bread Bowl Dip warm with vegetable sticks, crackers, or bread pieces for dipping.
