This cheese spread recipe first came to me as a gift. Not the recipe – the cheese spread. It was Christmastime and I was working as a high school guidance counselor.

One of the parents gave me a batch of this delicious spread in a pretty container as a holiday gift. She told me that she had to make huge quantities in her household as the family would devour it so quickly. With a laugh, she said that they’d just walk by the refrigerator with spoon in hand and dig in. Forget the crackers!

Well, soon as I tried it I was on the phone asking her for the recipe. It is amazingly simple to make and its popularity is proven. I would triple this recipe if I were you!

 

Cheese Spread Recipe

Ingredients

8 oz. colby jack cheese – shredded

8 oz cheddar cheese – shredded

1 dash Red Hot Sauce

1/2 T. onion powder*

1 tsp. garlic powder

2 tsp. prepared mustard

1 tsp. worchester sauce

1 1/3 cups real mayonnaise

Tip: you can substitute dry onion flakes for onion powder, if you prefer. 

Directions

Combine all ingredients except for the cheese first.

Mix well with a spoon.

Add cheese and mix thoroughly.

Scoop into a covered container and refrigerate.

Tip: the flavor enhances over time. If you can keep everyone away for 12 hours or more, it will taste even better but good luck with that! LOL

Note: for those who are on a low-carb diet, this is perfect for you! Less than 1 carbohydrate per serving. How much is a serving? Your guess is good as mine. LOL Just watch the carbs in whatever you choose to put it on!
