I use shredded mozzarella when making this dip. This time, I made the mistake of not covering before baking and it got a little too brown on top. Next time, I will uncover it for only the last 5-10 minutes of baking. This is great with buttery crackers, pita chips or toasted crusty bread slices. This could also be used as a filling for Clams Casino (add some crumbled cooked bacon and maybe some chopped pimentos.
