    I LOVE the Laughing Cow Garlic & Herb wedges. I spread one inside my grilled veggies wrap for low calorie delicious creaminess!

    My favorite flavor is light Garlic & Herb!!! Next would be the Light French Onion! I usually take one wedge and have it with either 6 fat free pretzel sticks, or 4 reduced fat wheat thins! This snack doesn't go above 100cal!!!

    Angelwings, that is an awesome idea. I'm always looking for something to replace mayo.

    I also have used that one in stuffed baked chicken & I make grilled cheesy turkey paninis on my George Forman! Love these little babies!

    I use them as my cheese and mayo on sandwhiches. So not only do I cut calories but I get two "toppings" in one small wedge.

    I love to use the french onion flavor on veggie burgers instead of mayo and cheese. Yum!!! Try it in a baked potato, that's good too.

    Sounds good but I have another snack idea for you. Sargento reduced fat cheese sticks Mozzarella 50 cal or new colby jack 60 cal I pair that up with the new Wheat Thins Garlic and Parsley Flatbreads 60 cal for 2 large pieces. they are really good! They have another flavor but I havent tried them. They would actually be good to use instead of bread as bruchetta as long as you eat them right away.

    The Bakery at Walmart makes a sweet multigrain dark roll that has only 80 calories and is delicious. I spread 1/2 a wedge in one for bread with a meal, bake slightly for a spin on cheesy garlic toast or use to make paninis by adding fresh veggies and low sodium deli meat along with my wedge of cheese. My son LOVES these. If you don't have a panini grill, just bake the sandwich until the cheese melts and sandwich is toasty. Still oh so yummy and low calorie!

    I use the Laughing Cow cheese wedges on many things...celery, triscuits, on a sandwich instead of mayo, on a bagel. They are very filling and tasty !

    Love it, except I'm grumpy that I would caught by not reading the nut. label carefully. Found the Light herb and Garlic ones when Iwent to the States and I was so excited I bought 4 boxes. Ijust assumed that the label was for 2 wedges, like the Plain light ones. I thought hmm ok, for 10 calories more I can live with that....

    BUT the wedges are bigger and it is 10 calores more for ONE wedge vs 1 wedges of the plain!!!! which means it is more than double the calories.

    I really hate when the food manufacturers play numbers games rather than comparing apples to apples :mad:

    They also have the little cubes, and not sure the nutrition content, but they are tiny, like .5"X.5", and I just pop the whole thing in my mouth, and let it melt...so good, have only had the original, no flavored ones.

    35 cal for 5 squares, 7 cal per square, not too shabby!!!

    Love them! Garlic & Herb and French Onion are awesome! I also use it for grilled cheese sandwiches on whole wheat... YUMMY! So good as a spread instead of mayo and great w/ whole grain crackers too!

    My 11yo's favorite snack is a Garlic & Herb wedge w/ Garlic Triscuit crackers! :bigsmile:
