Mahón-Menorca Cheese Fondue Dip with Roasted Vegetables | Blogger Recipe Challenge

December 4, 2018 by athomewithrebecka Leave a Comment

Menorca Cheese Fondue Recipe


Mahón-Menorca Cheese Fondue Dip with Roasted Veggies is all you need for a hearty dinner this Holiday Season. Share it with your special someone or enjoy it alone, either way, you're sure to be filled with the delicious taste of Mahón-Menorca Spain.

I really like the idea of having a heavy appetizer for dinner to keep me satisfied yet not overly stuffed during the holidays, especially when it's rich and sumptuous fondue made with Mahón-Menorca cheese.

Paired with a crisp bottle of white wine, you won't miss the meat with this entrée offering as it's served with a selection of deliciously roasted mixed vegetables and bread cubes.  Did I mention it only takes 35 minutes to prepare? 

My recipe uses Greek yogurt which gives the dish a recognizable tang, combined with the unmistakable milky taste and slightly buttery characteristic of Mahón-Menorca Semi-Curd cheese.There's nothing more extravagant and unexpected as the flavor of cheese fondue, accentuated by the addition of sun-dried tomatoes. Every bite is a new sensation with roasted vegetables, seasoned in sea salt and red pepper flakes.

This recipe is my Second entry in the inaugural Mahón-Menorca Cheese Holiday Blogger Recipe Challenge   Entrée Category.
