Cheesy Broccoli Dip

Serves: 28 servings
Total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients
¼ cup margarine
½ cup chopped onion
2 (4 oz) cans mushroom pieces and stems, drained
2 (10¾ oz) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 (8 oz) pasteurized processed cheese food, cut into cubes
2 (5 oz) jars sharp pasteurized processed cheese food
2 (9 oz) packages frozen cut broccoli, thawed, drained, and cut into small pieces
⅔ cup slivered almonds
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3-4 drops hot pepper sauce, to taste
Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, melt margarine.
  2. Add onion and mushrooms; sauté until onion is tender, about 3 minutes.

  4. Add broccoli, almonds, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce and hot pepper sauce.
  5. Simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Notes

You can make this dip beforehand and freeze it. Thaw slightly; reheat and serve. Tastes great every time!

As the dip sits, it thickens slightly, but retains its gooey goodness.

Put a bowl of the dip on the coffee table—it’ll keep your guests happily occupied while you finish up in the kitchen. We always provide a serving spoon and small plates so guests can take as much as they want without having to dip into the community bowl.

Store covered in your refrigerator.

The Enloe bookcase I ordered last November finally came, and I've loaded it with some of my favorite books, photos, and other items--all with special meaning and memories. Holders for my collection of Victoria magazines, which are too beautiful to toss, are on order. No more books for me. This bookcase is full. #books #bookcase #bookworm
