This basil cheese spread is great with cucumbers and crackers, or used as a sandwich spread. Make it ahead for better flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 cups basil leaves
- 1 clove garlic
- cup labne
- 8 ozs cream cheese
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta
- 2 tbsps plain yogurt
- salt, to taste
Directions
In a food processor, mince the garlic. Add the basil leaves and pulse until the leaves are chopped fine.
Add the labne and cheeses and yogurt and a pinch of salt and process until the spread is super creamy and pale green.
Serve with cucumber rounds, crackers, pita chips, or toasted baguette.
Keeps well for a week in the refrigerator.
