This is a great quick easy dip that I've made at least 5 times. My husband usually eats it all before we can share it. So yummy and tastes awesome with Garden Vegie Ritz!

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Size-Wise

Savor every bite of this tasty dip. Each 2-Tbsp. serving goes a long way on flavor.

How to Pan Toast Garlic

Pan toasting garlic is a great alternative to roasting whole heads of garlic. Place unpeeled cloves of garlic in small nonstick skillet; cook on medium-low heat until garlic cloves are fragrant and evenly browned on all sides, turning every 3 to 5 min. Remove from heat. Cool completely before peeling.
