My oldest son can never get enough of this chunky cheese spread. Serve it with pita chips, cause they’re low in fat and calories, yet have the strength to hold up under a heavy spread. But don’t let the weight scare you away, it’s made with fat-free and reduced fat cheese…so enjoy!
1 eight oz pkg. fat-free Philly cream cheese
1 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
1/2 cup chopped mango chutney
1/2 cup chopped onion
3 Tbsp raisins
1 Tbsp ginger

1 tsp curry powder
3 Tbsp chopped dry roasted cashews
Directions
1. Mix cheese, 2 Tbsp chutney, onion, raisins, ginger, garlic and curry powder until blended.

7. Makes 8 servings, 2 Tbsp per person.
