Mmmmm, I really liked this creamy and flavourful dip! It was very pretty to look at and had a great taste! The cheese and garlic go great with the asparagus. THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful recipe with us, dka! Ill make it again!

Very nice! This is not as heavy as a lot of similar dips. I used a combination of lite sour cream and light mayo, also increased the garlic a bit. We ate this with baguette slices. After baking I sprinkled some shredded parmesan on top and ran it under the broiler for a minute, then garnished with some reserved asparagus tips. Thanks for this great app., dka!

This was really good. I made this for my aunt and myself a couple of weeks ago. We ate so much of this we weren't hungry for dinner. I chopped the asparagus into small pieces with a knife since I didn't have a food processor and added a handful of grated mozzerella to add a little extra cheeziness. We ate it on toasted french bread pieces. Thanks for a great recipe.
