Cheese Mixture
- 8 oz goat cheese softened to room temperature
- 4 oz cream cheese softened to room temperature
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

- 2 cloves garlic grated

- 1 cup tomato bruschetta homemade or jarred (I use DeLallo brand)
- 1 to 2 tablespoon balsamic glaze
- 2 to 3 tablespoon chopped fresh basil leaves
- grilled crostini or pita for serving
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 400ºF.
- In a large bowl, combine the goat cheese, cream cheese, mozzarella, Greek yogurt, and garlic; mix well.
- Transfer to a greased 1-quart baking dish or ovenproof skillet, and spread into an even layer.

Notes
The cheese mixture can be mixed and added to a baking dish up to 1 day ahead. Remove from the refrigerator 1 hour before baking. Refrigerate leftover dip in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Enjoy chilled or heat individual portions in the microwave until warm. This dip also makes a dynamite sandwich spread.
