Guest guest Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 I actually raided the files during the appetizers week but came up with something else that I made last week and fit in great with this weeks Raid The Files theme - RTF cooking for one or two... I was sorting through the appetizers folder and pulled a few recipes out. I had a hunk of creme cheese and needed to do something with it. I found a recipe by PT and a recipe by Allison. I was going to sort of mix and match the two creme cheese spreads and some of the others depending on what I had on hand. I ended up just trying my own thing which was pleasantly inspired by the several recipes in the folder. I only used a half a brick of creme cheese just in case I didn't like it. Well, it turned out wonderfully in my opinion. 4oz. creme cheese 3 to 4 sun-dried tomatoes chunks (in oil), minced 1/2 to 1 green onion, sliced (I use all of the onion, green on down to the white) 1/2 serrano chile, chopped 1/2 garlic bulb, minced Let the creme cheese sit out a bit in room temperature (unless you live in the desert or the North Pole). Cut off (or spoon out) about 4 ounces worth. Fold/stir in the remaining ingredients. Those are pretty close measurements to what I used but really it is all to taste depending on how much you like the ingredients and how flavorful you want the spread. Obviously the more serrano and fresh garlic you use the more heat and garlicky flavor you have. I think the onion gives it a bit of freshness. Also add in a bit of oil from the sun dried tomatoes if you want a bit more of that tomatoey flavor. Pic is in the photos section under, " S " , entitled " creme cheese spread " . http://ph./photos.
