How to Make Baked Asparagus Dip

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Steam or microwave 1 pound of asparagus spears until tender-crisp (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Let the asparagus cool slightly, then roughly chop it.
  4. In a food processor, combine the chopped asparagus, 8 ounces of cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup of mayonnaise, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Process until smooth but with some texture remaining.
  5. Pour the mixture into an oven-safe dish (approximately 8x8 inches).
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
  7. Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and freshly cracked black pepper before serving with your favorite crackers or crostini.
