Garden Veggie Spread
Amanda
A quick & easy spread / dip using fresh garden veggies. This recipe is easily adaptable - use your favorite veggies, herbs and spices to create your own perfect Vegetable Spread! I often add more onions & garlic for myself or add whatever herbs are growing in abundance. Enjoy!
Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Cook Time 5 minutes mins
Total Time 20 minutes mins
- 1- 8 oz package cream cheese cubed
- 3/4 cup chopped bell peppers - I used half green and half yellow
- 1 medium carrot grated
- 1 stalk celery chopped
- 3 radishes chopped
- 3-4 spring onions snipped + extra for garnish
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1-2 tablespoons half & half optional
- freshly cracked salt & pepper to taste
Prep & chop all veggies.
Place cubed cream cheese and all veggies into food processor. Pulse until desired consistency. If you want a chunkier spread, process less. If spread is too thick for your liking, a tablespoon or two of half and half may be added.
Alternatively, if you didn't want to use a food processor, chop veggies finely or grate and stir by hand.
Transfer spread to mixing bowl. Salt & pepper to taste, stir.
Store covered in fridge for a few hours, allowing flavors to blend.
Serve with fresh veggies, crackers, pita chips or wheat crackers. Garnish with additional pepper & snipped spring onions. Enjoy :)
