NON-FAT SAVORY SPREAD
Adapted from a suggestion in Dean Ornish's book "Eat More, Weigh Less". This is a nice nonfat substitute for cream cheese and doesn't have any of the chemicals and additives that nonfat cream cheeses usually contain. Be sure not to use yogurt that contains gelatin for this recipe. You could also add things like sundried tomatoes and grated carrots for more of a veggie spread, or chives in place of green onions.
