Warm Roasted Mushroom, Green Onion and Cheddar Dip image

from Calgary Herald - haven't yet tried, but sounds delicious. This warm and savoury dip, rich with melted cheese and roasted mushrooms, is easy to make and take. You roast the mushrooms in advance, stir the whole thing together, cover and refrigerate, then heat up just before serving, releasing the heady aromas of thyme and rosemary.
