directions

On medium-low, heat olive oil and flour in 2 quart saucepan. Add liquids from canned seafoods. Add cubed cream cheese, salt, garlic and horseradish. Stir till smooth.

Add asiago and 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese. Stir until smooth. Add seafood; blend well. Simmer until heated.

Add half and half a little at a time to seafood sauce. It will resemble a pudding. Simmer 12-15 minutes. Stir frequently, don't scorch.

In a shallow baking dish, spray with a non-stick spray. Line the bottom of the dish with the marinara. Place seafood mixture on top of the marinara. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup parmesan cheese.

Bake at 325 degrees F for 10-15 minutes. Do not brown. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

For Breadsticks: Follow the instructions on the package for baking time and temp. Before you put them in the oven, brush with olive oil and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Wrap in tin foil.

When they're done, cut them on a diagonal into dipping size pieces.
