Beat in Monterey Jack cheese until well blended. Stir in mushrooms and 1/4 cup green onions. Spoon into serving container. Sprinkle remaining green onions on top. Cover and store in refrigerator.

Thats sounds awesome, will try for sure. What can i substitute the Monterey with, like what kind of cheese is it?
 
You could probably substitute a swiss or a colby for the Monterey Jack.
I think Monterey is a mild sort of nutty tasting cheese.
 
There goes another one into the saved from NCT recipe files!

This will be one of those I use for carry in at work, and during the holidays.

Yummy Barb!
