Time 10m

Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
3 scallions, trimmed and coarsely chopped
4 -5 slices lox or 4 -5 slices smoked salmon
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

In a food processor, work the cream cheese until it is smooth, turning off the motor and scraping down the sides of the work bowl several times.
Add the scallions, lox, salt and pepper. Continue working the cream cheese mixture until it is blended (by the way, it is okay if there are some chunks of salmon in the mixture).
Remove cream cheese mixture to a pretty container or small bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve. Schmear on bagels, matzoh, or toasted pumpernickel or rye bread, or whatever you like.
