I used the Parmesan cheese suggestion, and the whole family liked it! Honestly, it tasted like that hot artichoke dip that everyone loves at parties. Oh yeah, and I skipped the mint as well. Not a fan of mint, even if I weren’t going the Parmesan route.

Super easy, super quick, super delicious! I took a few hints from the other comments & added a few dashes of lemon juice, a sprinkling of dried mint. I used enough pre-minced garlic = 1 clove. I planned to add Parmesan, since that sounded like a great idea, but this was plenty flavorful & creamy on its own. I did top with a few croutons. Truly a gourmet surprise. Pros: just a few ingredients, totally delicious Cons: none

Very bland. I didn't have fresh mint for garnish, so used lemon juice to add a little flavor. Jamie, Bethesda, MD
