This was really good. I used green onions from the garden and just a dash of cumin. It tasted really great and fresh, but as soon as it came off the heat it started to clump. I think maybe serving in a small crockpot or even a fondue pot, would help it maintain its smoothness.

We really loved the flavor of this dip and it was very easy to make. The texture could have been a little smoother, but that may be due to the cheese we used. Overall, a really delicious dip that we will definitely make again.

It was very fast and easy to make. The cumin flavor overpowered the dip. I will make it again but I will cut the cumin down to 1/2 - 1 teaspoon.
