We love this combination of pungent flavors. The original version was submitted by Kelly O'Rourke on however I lightened it a bit by using reduced fat cream cheese, less oil and then added our preferred amounts of seasonings. Allow at least 2 hours for chilling time. Ingredients:
2 (8 ounce) packages neufchatel cheese, softened (reduced fat cream cheese) |
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled |
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
4 green onions, finely chopped |
1 tablespoon dried dill weed |
2 teaspoons dried oregano |
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper |
Directions:
1. With an electric mixer or food processor, combine the cream cheese, feta cheese, olive oil, green onions and garlic.
2. Season with dill, oregano and cracked black pepper; mix well.
3. Form into 2 balls or place in a decorative bowl.
4. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours to allow it to become firm and for flavors to blend.
5. Enjoy on vegetable sticks, assorted crackers, bread sticks, or toasted pita triangles or baguette rounds.
