This is a great dip! I didn't have a bread bowl, so I used bakeware. Also, having it one hand- I used FF sour cream, cream cheese and it turned out fantastic! I was also pretty generous with the leek (I was trying to clean out the veggie bin). -
this makes a lovely appetizer, i served this in the bread bowl as suggested with some sliced veggies.
