This spread is so simple to make but it does need to be refrigerated at least 8 hours to allow the flavors to meld. It also may be frozen in an air- tight container for up to 1 month. Thaw in refrigerator at least 24 hours afterwards and stir before serving. Karpathos is a Greek Isle. Ingredients:
8 ounces neufchatel cheese, softened or 8 ounces cream cheese |
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled |
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
3 cucumbers |
Directions:
1. Process all ingredients except cucumbers in a food processor until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides. Cover and chill at least 8 hours.
2. Peel cucumbers using a potato peeler leaving thin strips of the skin so it's striped. Cut them in half lengthwise.
3. Scoop out seeds using a teaspoon. Fill cucumber boats with cheese spread.
