For a richer flavor, use a high-quality, full-fat mayonnaise instead of light mayonnaise. Experiment with different types of blue cheese to find your favorite flavor profile. Gorgonzola Dolce will offer a milder taste, while Roquefort will provide a stronger, more assertive flavor. If you prefer a smoother topping, pulse the mixture in a food processor until desired consistency is achieved. Be careful not to over-process. This topping can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Allow to come to room temperature slightly before serving.

Sauté aromatics: Heat olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, but not browned. (Approximately 5-7 minutes). Transfer the sautéed onion and garlic to a mixing bowl.
