Summer holidays, swimming, drinking beer, having bbqs, and loads of heat and sunshine! That’s what’s filling my days at the moment, as well as lots of visitors. Now my mum is here with me, for her first visit to Perth since 1980!
This quick and easy dip fills the “keep it cool” menu perfectly. When I served it recently, all of the English people present said it looked and tasted just like Heinz Sandwich Spread – which I’ve never eaten but I take their word for it!.
I can’t take the credit for this recipe – I found it here at one of my favourite recipe sites, Best Recipes.
Carrot & Gherkin Dip
250 gm tub cream cheese (I used low-fat)
1/4-1/3 small onion, very finely chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped carrot
2-3 tbsp Fletchers gherkin relish
cracked pepper, to taste
1 tsp milk
Mix all ingredients until well combined. Refrigerate until serving. Serve with your choice of savoury crackers, celery sticks or carrot sticks.
Happy Summer Fooding!
