1. Lightly coat a 9-inch pie or cake pan with olive oil or nonstick cooking
spray. Reserve. Preheat oven, with the rack in the middle position, to
375°F.
2. Put both cheeses into the chopping cup. Process on Speed 5 until
chopped, about 20 to 30 seconds. Add the garlic and shallot and
process on Speed 5 until chopped, another 20 seconds.
3. Put the remaining ingredients into a medium mixing bowl, along with the
chopped mixture. Using the blending shaft, process on Speed 5 until
combined. Use an up-and-down motion, about 1 to 1½ minutes, to be
sure to cut through all ingredients.
4. Transfer mixture to the prepared pie/cake pan and put into the
preheated oven. Bake until the top is nicely browned, about 20 to 25
minutes.
5. Serve immediately with pita chips, crusty bread and crisp vegetables.
