Cream Cheese Replacement


I don't know about you, but when I was younger I used to eat cream cheese by the knife-full. haha But since then I don't really crave cream cheese or any other forms of spreadable cheese. It just wasn't my thing. Well, that was until I tried Laughing Cow Light Garlic and Herb Cheese Wedges! They are so good! I have tried them on a variety of things, but I think they taste best on a slice of whole wheat bread. (I've tried rice cakes and ak-mak crackers). They are 35 calories each and exploding with flavor. Honestly, there is so much in a wedge- my bread ends up with such a thick layer! My favorite bread to use is Trader Joe's Low Calorie Whole Wheat Bread (45 cal, 5 g of protein, 5 g of fiber). I just take one slice and spread one wedge over it and eat it flat. (I've tried folding it into a sandwich, but the bread-cheese ratio isn't as satisfying that way- plus it feels like you're eating more when it's not folded up) The cheese is so thick and creamy (like cream cheese) and the bread is so soft, it's like sinking your teeth into something truely decadent every single time. I can't really say whether this is all that filling of a snack, but it's certainly quite satisfying! The Garlic and Herb flavor adds a good taste to your mouth so you don't really crave something else immediately after. I don't find the regular light swiss flavor as satisfying or tasty- I describe as more bland; and I have yet to try the French Onion flavor but I expect that to be just as good. I find that this is a snack I can eat anytime of the day: in the morning, lunchtime, afternoon, or late at night.

(This isn't supposed to be a product review, just a snack idea! Sorry if the overlap offends anyone!)

I just love your blog! This cheese is great, though I have only tried the light swiss flavor. I will have to try the garlic and herb when I get a chance.
