    When I'm craving cheese I usually grab a Laughing Cow cheese wedge (only 35 calories yay)

    www.thelaughingcow.com has a lot of yummy ideas for things including dip. Here's one I thought sounded good :)

    Ingredients

    2 whole Wedges Of The Laughing Cow® Light French Onion Cheese
    ¼ teaspoons Honey
    ¼ cups Fully Cooked Black Beluga Lentils
    1 Tablespoon Roasted Red Pepper, Diced Small
    1 teaspoon Fresh Parsley, Chopped
    Kosher Salt And Freshly Ground Black Pepper

    Preparation

    Combine cheese and honey in a small mixing bowl.
    Fold in lentils (do not mash!), roasted red pepper & parsley.
    Season with salt & pepper.
    Use as a dip with your favorite vegetables or spread on crackers.

    I have been putting campbell's cheddar cheese soup on my veggies and I LOVE it!!! I am sure it would work as a dip and has only 100 calories per. serving.
