Basil and Feta Cheese Spread

Betty's Savory Feta Cheese Spread

Описание:

In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make Italian-Style Feta Cheese Spread. This spread goes well with Italian-Style Bagel Crisps, which you will find in bettyskitchen.

Ingredients:

4-oz. feta cheese, crumbled and at room temperature
4-oz. cream cheese, softened to room temperature
½ tablespoon dried basil, or to taste
½ tablespoon dried chives, or to taste
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
¼ cup slivered almonds, chopped small and toasted
small amount of butter for toasting almonds

In a large mixing bowl, place 4-oz. feta cheese, 4-oz. cream cheese, ½ tablespoon dried basil, ½ tablespoon dried chives, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, and ¼ cup chopped slivered almonds that have been toasted in a small amount of butter. Use a stick blender or electric mixer to blend until mixture is smooth. Place Savory Feta Cheese Spread in a nice serving bowl. Serve with Italian-Style Bagel Crisps (from bettyskitchen). You may cover any leftover spread and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week. Enjoy!!! --Betty 

Betty's Kitchen пишет: @Beachbabe55846 Pecans are fine; however, this cheese spread does not require any kind of nut. You may omit them entirely, and it will be great!
