I can't help thinking of the places I'd use cream cheese - so...

As a spread on bagels, crackers or bread rolls with loads of salad and a sprinkly of s+p,

As a base for yummy dips - blend with roasted capsicums, s+p, or with tinned chickpeas, lemon juice, cumin and coriander, as a creamy version of hummous,with french onion soup mix, with garlic, onion powder, and a mix of fresh finely chopped herbs, or blended with tinned beetroot, or with sweet chili sauce poured over... Then eat with crackers or toast or crudites.

Add to rissole/meatloaf/meatball type mixes before cooking.

Add to creamy sauces instead of cream.

Dollop on tacos/burritos/quesadillas etc instead of sour cream

Mix with tinned tuna and a few herbs and make little parcels/rolls out of thin long strips of cucumber or zucchini.

Mix through the couscous or rice-based stuffings that you can use on stuffed peppers or mushrooms or zucchini or eggplant.


HTH!
