    Ingredients

    • 1 C. chicken broth or water
    • 4 oz. dried tomatoes (not oil-packed)
    • 2 16-oz. cartons dairy sour cream
    • 1 1/2 C. finely shredded Asiago cheese (6 oz.)
    • 1 1/4 C. mayonnaise
    • 1/2 of an 8-oz. pkg. cream cheese, cut up
    • 1 C. sliced fresh mushrooms or 1 oz. rehydrated dried mushrooms (such as porcini, shiitake, chanterelle, and/or oyster)
    • 1 C. thinly sliced green onions
    • Thinly sliced green onions
    • Baguette-style French bread slices, topped with finely shredded Asiago cheese and toasted

    Directions

    1. In a small saucepan, bring broth to boiling. Remove from heat. Add dried tomatoes; cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Drain, discarding liquid. Chop tomatoes (you should have about 1 1/4 cups).
    2. Meanwhile, in a 3 1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker, combine sour cream, the 1 1/2 C. Asiago cheese, the mayonnaise, cream cheese, mushrooms, and the 1 C. green onions. Stir in chopped tomatoes.
    3. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 3 to 4 hours or on high-heat setting for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Stir well before serving. If desired, keep warm in the slow cooker on low-heat setting for up to 2 hours. Sprinkle dip with additional green onions and serve with toasted cheese-topped baguette slices. Makes 7 cups.
    4. Test Kitchen Tip: To rehydrate dried mushrooms, place the dried mushrooms in a small bowl. Add enough boiling water to cover; let stand for 30 minutes. Drain mushrooms, squeezing out any excess liquid. Coarsely chop mushrooms.
