Pesto (Or Not) Brie Dip
Hot Mama Notes: The recipe above is what I used as the basis for my Brie dip. The problem was that I had no green onions (I substituted fresh garlic chives from my garden!) and no pesto (I omitted it altogether, but in hindsight, I should have chopped up a few fresh basil leaves from my garden.) and no plum tomato (I used 5 cherry/grape tomatoes from my garden). I also did not have 1 lb of Brie. I had 2 wedges. Still, I followed the directions as given, and my Brie turned out AWESOME!!!! Mine might have been cooked a little longer. The cheese was pretty much completely melted. But, no matter, it tasted AWESOME!!! I served it with a loaf of crusty white bread (french and italian) that I cut in half to make the pieces smaller and thus "bite size". :) I will definitely make this again, though Brie is SUPER expensive. $5 for each wedge. They were given to me, so I didn't feel the pain. I used a tiny (5"x7"x1") glass baking dish in our small oven.
