New to me anyway. I just found Light Blue cheese, Light Queso Fresco Chipotle & Light Tomato & Basil. I've never seen these flavors before. All I've ever seen around here are the Swiss, Garlic & Herb and French Onion in the Light. Still wish they would make a cheddar flavor.

    Wowowow, this stuff is good! We took an already awesome HG recipe and gave it a Mexican-inspired makeover. Cilantro haters, fret not. Just leave it out...

    Ingredients:
    4 1/2 oz. (about 2 cups) dry uncooked whole-wheat-blend rotini pasta (like the kind by Ronzoni)
    24 oz. (about 6 cups) frozen Green Giant Cauliflower & Cheese (or Three Cheese) Sauce
    3 wedges The Laughing Cow Light Queso Fresco & Chipotle cheese
    2 tbsp. finely chopped cilantro
    1/2 tsp. chili powder
    1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
    Salt and black pepper, to taste

    Directions:
    In a large pot, prepare pasta al dente (firm) according to the instructions on the package; drain well and set aside. While pasta is cooking, place contents of the cauliflower & sauce package(s) in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave for 10 - 12 minutes, until sauce has melted and cauliflower is hot.

    Once the bowl is cool enough to handle, remove it from the microwave and add cooked pasta. Unwrap cheese wedges and add those as well.

    Mix thoroughly, ensuring that the Laughing Cow cheese is evenly distributed and the pasta and cauliflower are coated in cheese sauce. Add cilantro, chili powder, and cayenne pepper, and mix thoroughly. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Enjoy!

    MAKES 4 SERVINGS

    HG Heads-Up! To track down your sauced-up frozen veggies, click here for a product locator. And if you can only find the Just for One Cauliflower & Cheese Sauce, as opposed to the multi-serving bags and boxes, use six of those trays in this recipe.
  • I just saw those the other day! They all look yummy! I love the original flavors. :tongue:
  • I've got all 3 in my fridge right now. I really love dipping sliced apple into the blue cheese. Yum!

    I'm a bit jealous. I'm not usually a great fan of artificially lower fat foods but sometimes I come on this board and read about you guys in the US with low fat, low carb tortillas, flavoured low fat cream cheese and I think how nice they would be for a change.

    In the UK we have far fewer of these types of foods - and what there is tends to be in just a few flavours, restricted to just a few choices per store and expensive. Oh, and majoring on chocolate or sweet flavours which don't do it for me.

    Perhaps we'll get some of these things soon - I will remain optimistic (and slightly jealous).

    Wow. I'm really surprised. I just went to my local Asda (Wal-mart) and guess what? For the first time ever there are Laughing Cow cheeses in Onion or Blue Cheese flavours - I have bought both and am looking forward to a treat later on. I wouldn't have been looking for them at all were it not for you guys, so thanks very much!

    YaY! I'm so glad you can enjoy them too. I love using them on sandwiches instead of mayonnaise & cheese. Lot's more flavor and lots less calories. They melt really well too, if you want to try some on veggies.

    That sounds good. I'm fancying the blue cheese one(s) melted on grilled chicken accompanies by stirfried red onions, chilis, musrooms, mixed peppers and spinach and a big spoon of salsa. Sort of fajitas without the tortillas.

    In the UK they are £1 for 8 sections - I guess it's about the same price.
