Did You Know?...

A little change from the ordinary cream cheese spread recipe, this spread has Swiss cheese, savory green onions and the crunch of healthy almonds.

Served warm with vegetables and crackers it is one of those appetizer party recipes your guests will love.

It's best served while still warm from the oven so time it to be ready just before it's to be served.
