So I was wondering what else to put it on... what tastes good with it?

    I mix fat free cream cheese with cool whip free and use it as a dip for fruit. YUMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!
  • okay, so not the most conservative on calories, but if you take a flour tortilla, spread the cream cheese lightly on it, add a slice or two of turkey breast and some jalepeno's. Roll it up and cut it into rolls. Not sure what the total calories would be, but it is so good!

    My mom takes thinly sliced meat (not sure what kind, but it is salty) and rolls it up with cream cheese inside...

    Of course, my favorite way to have cream cheese is....Cheesecake!

    I melt it into nachos, or on my veggies mixed with a bit of rosemarry... I use it on bran muffins, stuff it into jalapenos wrapped with bacon (not the best thing to lose weight with ahah BUT SO YUMMY!!)
  • My abosolute favorite snack is Philly fat free cream cheese with Reduced fat Wheat Thins.

    A slice of bread, cream cheese, covered in sliced up olives.
    Holy cow, it's so yummay!
  • Spread on ham is definatly good but I like to put a dill pickle spear in the middle. I used to think it sounded gross until I had one. Yum, yum! :happy:

    That's not gross!! That's a pickle dog!!! That's everyone's favorite party food. Slice it up, stick toothpicks on it and serve it on a Santa Claus plate. Also, just slice it for yourself and enjoy!

    I like it on celery...

    you can also take lunch meat and make faux sushi rolls...I hope someone else hasn't already said this cause I didn't read all the other messages yet...you take a piece of lunch meat, spread it with cream cheese, then put in cucumber or any other vegetable slices and roll it up...then slice it into little round sushi-like bites...very yummy

    ah someone did post a modification of the faux sushi idea...I just added vegetables...either way is yummy...and the meat I used was ham or turkey or even a slice of cheese...anything will do!

    Well this option is a bit high in sodium, but I am so addicted I love imitation crab it is 90 cals for a 1/2 cup serving and I just like to mix it with one tbs ff whipped cream cheese and eat it with a spoon or spread on some whole grain wheat thins or triscuits.

    By the way if you buy "Whipped" cream cheese it is fluffier and more spreadable and the portion is larger for less calories because it has more air in it lol.
  • my husband loves cream cheese on salami, then he rolls it up....doesnt sound good to me, but someone already had my celery suggestion so i thought i'd throw it out there.

    I don't eat cream cheese often, only on a bagel every now and then. Well, after logging it this morning I realized how much fat is in one little package. Guess moderation comes in to play, so heck try it on your baked salmon. :tongue:
