I had high expectations for this dip as I love roasted garlic, but for me it was just ok. I cut the recipe in half and used all ingredients as written, but there was nowhere near 1 1/2 cups of dip and what there was was so mayonaiseey in texture that I added 2 oz of cream cheese to bulk it up a little, even then I end up with on 3/4 of a cup of dip. I kept wondering if there were missing ingredients. The flavor of the roasted garlic and herbs are very bold and with the base this is very rich so it's not something you want to eat a lot of - so I guess it was good that it didn't make as much as the recipe states. I took this to a 4th of July party (many garlic lovers) and 1/2 of it came home : ( Maybe some tweaking will help. Thanks Carol for sharing your recipe. Reviewed for ZWT 4 Zingo
