Cheesy Toasted Almond Dip!

We LOVE this dip!  We make it every Thanksgiving, and Christmas!!  If you like toasted almonds, you are in for a treat!!  Great fall dip, and so easy to make!

CHEESY TOASTED ALMOND DIP!
8 oz. Cream Cheese
6 oz. Shredded Swiss Cheese
1/3 cup mayo
1/3- 1/2 Slivered Almonds~ Toasted in pan spayed with pam (only takes a couple minutes on stove top.  Watch and stir til they are mostly golden)
3 Tbsp chopped green onions
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4-1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
3/4 tsp sugar
Put all ingredients into bowl, reserving some of your toasted almonds for later, and mix well~

Spray a quiche pan, or any other pan of like size, with Pam.  (remember, you'll be serving it in the pan you bake it in, so make it pretty!  :) Place all of the  cheese mixture into pan (flatten it all down)  and bake in a 350 degree pre-heated oven for 15-20 minutes!  If top is not golden enough, throw it under broiler for a quick minute.  That's what I always do to get that pretty color!

All cooked up, and ready to eat!  TOP OFF WITH THE RESERVED TOASTED ALMONDS YOU PUT ASIDE!  You can serve this with pita chips, wheat thins, crostini, or even vegetables!  Any way you want!  We've eaten it with french bread before, and it was great!  It's really yummy!!!!  :)
