Cranberry Goat Cheese Spread

Adapted from Bon Appetit March 2001

Nice for breakfast on bagels or toast.

Yield: Makes about 1 cup

ingredients

Nonstick vegetable oil spray

1/4 cup dried cranberries

6 oz nonfat spreadable cream cheese, room temperature

6 oz soft fresh goat cheese (such as Montrachet)

2 to 3 teaspoons honey (may be leftout)

preparation

Spray metal blade of processor with nonstick spray. Add dried cranberries to processor and coarsely chop. Add nonfat cream cheese, goat cheese and 2 teaspoons honey; process until well blended. Taste and add 1 teaspoon honey, if desired. Transfer spread to bowl. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

Decorate top of spread with more dried cranberries.

 
I've made something similar using regular cream cheese and adding some chopped pistachios

 
Steve, the original recipe called for only 1 3/4 oz of goat cheese. I changed the recipe

to equal amounts of cream and goat cheese.

I've edited the recipe to reflect that.
