Best Mediterranean Cheese Spread Recipes
SOUTHERN MEDITERRANEAN GOAT CHEESE SPREAD OR DIP
This is my own creation inspired by, if not entirely true to, the cuisines of the Southern Mediterranean which I love. Use it as a dip, spread it on any type of toasted bread. I've used it on grilled steak to good advantage. You'll get 16 servings of 1 Tbsp each.

MEDITERRANEAN GOAT CHEESE SPREAD (WW)
Sun-dried tomatoes are a favorite of ours, so this dip was a must. You can buy herb-flavored goat cheese and experiment with different flavors. NOTE: Gently fold the olives and tomatoes into the cheese mixture; over-mixing may turn the spread an unappetizing purplish pink color. From "WW 5-Ingredient-15 Minute Recipes" and = 1 point. Served on 1 melba toast round = 2 points.
