What is your favorite Laughing Cow Cheese recipe?

I use the garlic and herb flavor to mix in with my tuna fish along with a tbs of light mayo. It helps make the tuna creamy without more mayo and adds a nice flavor. Then I usually spread the tuna on a sandwich thin or wrap and add pickles, lettuce, and peppers.

Just made this Mexican one last night and loved it! Hope you enjoy!

Hungry for Mexican, but it's not doing anything for your waste line? Try these, I made them last night and they were amazing and ready in about 20 minutes! Plus had TONS of fiber and protein!

Ingredients:
1/4 Yellow Onion Chopped
1 large red bell pepper chopped
3 cloves of garlic chopped
1 small package of Port Side Salad shrimp. (you can use other shrimp if you want... 1 1/4 cup frozen uncooked)
2 wedges laughing cow queso fresco cheese
2 tsp packaged taco seasoning
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
black pepper, adobo and creole seasoning to taste
2 homestyle 100 calorie whole grain tortillas

Directions
1. Chop the veggies... I tend to chop the onions first and start cooking them first since I like them the most done, but you could put them all in together if you wanted.

2. Spray a skillet with cooking spray so the veggies won't stick, and cook on medium until they are soft cook the frozen shrimp in the pan with the veggies until cooked through out .
- If your veggies and shrimp don't sweat out a lot of water, then add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water to make spices coat easier, etc.

3. stir in your spices to taste and your laughing cow cheese until melted through out.

4. Put half in each Tortilla and Enjoy!

I was just asking this the other day to some people! Your recipe sounds delicious and now I want to try it out!

hungrygirl.com gives some great recipes using laughing cow.

What about easy chicken cordon bleu?? Spread the laughing cow on a thin boneless/skinless chicken breast. Lay a slice or two of deli ham, roll it up and secure it with a toothpick and then bake

I tried making a creamed spinach with it the other nite, but I haven't perfected that yet... I'll let you know when I do

I make creamed spinach with the laughing cow light creamy swiss all the time!

Ingredients:
2 10 oz pkgs of frozen spinach (or use fresh!)
1 large yellow onion
2-3 wedges of laughing cow light creamy swiss (I use 1 wedge per person eating usually and depends on my mood and how many calories I have to use!)
2 T parmesan
salt and pepper to taste

dice onion, saute until translucent. add spinach, mix. Add cheese, stirring until melted and warmed all the way through. (I add laughing cow first, melt it then add parm). Sometimes I'll add 2 tablespoons of hormel 33% less fat bacon bits!!

I am obsessed with this dish!! I hope someone tries it and loves it

Hearty Creamy Potato Soup

Just made this tonight and it was AMAZING! Really filling, and feels soo guilty but its not

Ingredients:
2tbs light butter
2 tbs all purpose flour
2 cups chopped celery
1 large chopped yellow onion
6 cloves garlic chopped
6 cups fat free 33% less sodium swanson chicken broth
2 cups 2 % milk
4 large russet potatoes chopped
4 wedges laughing cow swiss cheese
1 1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese
4 tbsp hormel real bacon bacon bits
Black pepper, Mrs. Dash, dried chives and rosemary to taste

Directions:

1. Melt the butter in a large, sautee the celery, onions, and garlic
2. stir in the flour to thicken
3. add the chicken broth, milk, potatoes and spices, still well boil until the potatoes are soft
4. semi- mash the potates in the pot with a wish, but still leave in large chunks, this also thickens the soup.
5. break up and stir in laughing cow cheese... this has a sour cream effect and makes it really yummy
6. top each bowl with 1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese and bacon pieces.

this makes a BIG bowl and is really filling and yummy! 417 calorie for all of it... but you can save a bunch of calories by skipping on the cheese and bacon bits... it makes it taste soooo yummy! Enjoy!

I made the Yodeling Risotto from the LC website for dinner a while back. I seriously felt like I was being so bad eating it, b/c it tasted so good! This recipe makes 2 servings @ 122cal and 3fat each. It takes a little time, but worth it!
Yodeling Risotto
* 2 whole Wedges Of The Laughing Cow® Light Swiss Original Cheese
* 1 teaspoon Teaspoon Olive Oil
* 1 Tablespoon Yellow Onion, Diced Small
* 1 teaspoon Garlic, Minced
* 4 whole Cremini Mushrooms Diced Small
* ⅓ cups Arborio Rice
* ⅓ cups Dry White Wine
* 1 cup Vegetable Or Chicken Broth, Hot
* Kosher Salt And Freshly Ground Black Pepper
* 1 Tablespoon Parmesan Cheese, Grated
* 1 Tablespoon Chives, Chopped

Heat olive oil in a 2-quart sauté pan over medium heat. Add onions and cook slowly for 2-3 minutes, until translucent.
Add garlic, mushrooms & rice; stir well until coated.
Add wine; continue to cook while stirring until liquid is absorbed. Season lightly with salt & pepper.
Add hot stock in stages, ⅓ cup at a time. Stir continuously between each addition until liquid is fully absorbed. (Note: risotto is done at the al dente stage, tender but not mushy. Be sure to taste rice between broth additions to test for doneness; the risotto may be ready before all the broth is used.)
When ready, remove pan from stove. Stir in cheese & adjust seasonings with salt and pepper.
Portion into serving bowls; garnish with Parmesan cheese & chives.

These sound amazing! I have been using LCC in the morning on toasted english muffins with turkey bacon. The possibilities are endless really. I love the chicken cordon blue idea. I think my family would like it:)

I like to use it instead of other condiments on a turkey burger

OOOO here is a new one I just tried...I put a wedge that I re-shaped into a flattened ball into the center of homemade low-fat hamburger patties. Hubby grilled them up as usual, and when you take a bite, the oozy melty laughing cow is hidden inside each bite. SOOOO decadent, so guilt free! No need for cheese on the outside of the patty.

You could use any flavor, but I am a particular fan of the blue
