I have made this several times for parties and it's always the first thing gone. It is so easy, and it turns out so yummy!
Asiago-Artichoke-Turkey Spread
Blending the mixture in the food processor is the secret to a smooth texture in this appetizer spread. Adding the garlic to the running food processor finely minces the cloves, and it ensures that they are completely chopped before the other ingredients are added.
Yield: 20 servings (serving size: 4 melba toast rounds and about 3 tablespoons spread)
