The current obsession in our household is homemade veggie cream cheese!! Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner we are coming up with ways (excuses) to incorporate this into every meal!!
On crackers, bagels, turkey sandwiches or stuffed in sweet peppers...homemade veggie cream cheese is a healthy addiction. I have been alternating between low-fat cream cheese and dairy-free cream cheese and I can't decide which is more delicious...so hopefully you all can let me know!!
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup dairy free cream cheese (Tofutti or GoVeggie brand work great) or 1 cup low-fat cream cheese
- 2 carrots, finely chopped
- 1/2 onion, finely chopped
- 2 scallions, finely chopped
- 2 stalks of celery finely chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon course black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
PROCESS:
- Bring cream cheese to room temperature. (leave out approx. 30 minutes)
- Combine cream cheese, veggies, salt, pepper, garlic powder and parsley in a large bowl.
- Mix and fold your veggies, herbs, spices and cream cheese until everything is evenly combined.
- Serve with crackers, bagels, or more veggies!!
P.S. I have also included radishes, broccoli, and red peppers in past batches...the possibilities are endless! Use what you have on hand, or get creative in the produce isle!! Enjoy XO
Yummmm!!
