Ingredients

Scale

Mushroom and Aromatics

  • 2 cups baby bella mushrooms (8 oz), sliced
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme (or 1/4 tsp dried thyme)
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Cheese Mixture

  • 1 cup cream cheese (8 oz), softened
  • 1/2 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese, divided

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Leave the cream cheese out on the counter to soften. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Remove stems from the mushrooms and slice them. Mince the garlic cloves to be ready for cooking.
  2. Cook Aromatics: Heat the avocado oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add the minced garlic and thyme, cooking until soft and fragrant, approximately 3 minutes.
  3. Sauté Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Toss them frequently and cook until they become slightly soft, about 7 minutes. Season with salt then remove the skillet from heat.
  4. Prepare Cheese Mixture: While the mushrooms cool slightly, combine the softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, and half of the shredded parmesan (1/2 cup) in a bowl and mix until well blended.
  5. Combine Components: Add the cheese mixture into the skillet with the cooked mushrooms and mix everything thoroughly. Evenly sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded parmesan on top.
  6. Bake Dip: Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes to heat through and meld flavors.
  7. Finish Under Broiler: Increase the oven temperature to broil and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the parmesan cheese is browned and bubbling, creating a delicious crust.
  8. Serve: Remove the skillet from the oven and serve the dip hot. It pairs beautifully with toasted baguette slices, crackers, or fresh vegetables for dipping.

Notes

  • Use a cast iron skillet for even heat distribution and great oven safety.
  • The dip can be made a few hours ahead and refrigerated; reheat in the oven before serving.
  • Substitute fresh thyme with dried if fresh is unavailable, adjusting the amount accordingly.
  • For a lighter option, use low-fat cream cheese and Greek yogurt.
  • Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
