Veggie Spread
This dip slash spread is so good and the fun thing about it is you can add any veggies you want to the recipe. I ended up using what I had left over in the refrigerator. I had cucumber, red onion, and red pepper. You can add cheddar cheese to the recipe if you like. I think green onions would be wonderful in it. It really is a versatile dish. You can serve it with crackers or a sliced baguette, garlic toast any dipping foods available. It definitely has to be refrigerated for several hours so all the flavors combine. I love the addition of the red pepper, it gave it a little sweetness. I have made it with carrots before too and that really adds some sweetness and pretty color. First I gathered all my veggies and cut them in chunks. Then I added them to the food processor and pulsed them a few times until they are really small pieces. You do not want large chunks of veggies. I then added in my softened cream cheese and some sour cream. This gives it just a little tang. I pulsed it all together a few times and then I refrigerated it overnight.

What can you substitute for the red bell pepper? I cannot eat any type of bell pepper.
