    They have chipotle ones!!!!! I saw it at the store, and it was on. DH and I have eaten all but 2 already. If he eats the last two before I can get more I will hurt him. :stuck_out_tongue:

    So many variations!! I use it in place of butter for jacket potatoes or melt a couple with some boiled water to make a cheese sauce for meals like zucchini pasta and add some chicken, tomatoes and spices! tastes exactly like high fat cheese sauces :O

    OK, this thread has made me really bitter and jealous because I can only get the original ones, NONE of the flavours!!!

    I love these little wedges! I add one to sauteed zucchini noodles as a creamy side. Also to egg whites and microwaved. I will add to cooked brocolli slaw and tomatoe soup. I add it to low carb bread for a grilled cheese. On a Wasa cracker. I love, love, love the new Spicy Jack flavor!

    I love it too and have some $1 off coupons. However, I only have one grocery store in my small town and they now have all the Laughing Cow products on a rack in the aisle by the deli, and it's NOT refrigerated! I've been hesitant to buy it. How bout everyone else? Do you find it refrigerated or not?

    I've seen it in non-refrigerated displays too... I've bought it and it's been fine. Maybe it's full of chemicals that keep it fresh? I know that's a gross thought but seriously, in my mind cheese needs to be refrigerated. I keep my LC cheese in the fridge starting the second I get it home, but I've never had any problems buying it at room temperature from the store.

    I also have bought them both ways. Refrigerated and room temp. They tasted the same both ways.

    I use the French onion as a base for a white pizza on Josephs flax wrap. Add a little garlic, shredded pizza cheese, and baked chicken. Low cal and YUM.

    Omg what is this cheese that I've been missing? Do I need to buy some tomorrow? Is it a cream cheese or just a super soft cheese?

    It's a soft spreadable cheese that comes in several different flavors, packaged as single-serving triangles in a circular "wheel" box... give it a try; join the fan club!

    Wow, sounds like there are many flavors I'm missing out on! We've got regular, swiss and cheddar. But I love them, especially on sandwiches/wraps of any kind. Sometimes I put a couple in my spaghetti sauce to make a creamy/rosée kind of tomato sauce.

    Definitely going to try that chicken recipe...sounds delish!

    I'm pretty sure I found brie-flavored once at Trader Joe's... if it wasn't LC brand, it was packaged exactly that way and fooled me.

    Oh gosh, love all the ideas here. I just use them for my wraps.. But using them for cooking and stuff. Why didn't I think of that! :open_mouth:

    I use them on grilled portabello mushrooms. Grill stem side down, after lightly coating with olive oil or lite balsamic. Then flip it over and put one wedge (sliced) on the hollow side. Finish grilling and enjoy!!! So yummy!!!!!

    I thought it was just me that loved this stuff!
    I was feeling so guilty that it's full of chemicals and isn't cheese at all but it's so low cal and yummy that it's impossible to justify full fat cheese over laughing cow!
    I use it in pitta breads instead of mayo / butter or any high fat condiment - I use it on Muffins with fried egg ( soooooo delicious! ) on rivitas multigrain are the best!
    And I have to try the chicken!
    I'm in the fan club haha x

    I just used the chipotle and fresco one this morning. I made an over easy egg, one slice of turkey bacon and the wedge of cheese on a homemade biscuit. I havent tried it in cooking yet , but you all have gave me some great ideals.

    I use 2 of the Light Swiss and mix them with the Starkist Smoked Tuna in the package. Add some celery and green onions and you have low calorie tuna fish!

    So many good ideas to try! All I've ever done was spread it on crackers for an afternoon snack.

    Stick a wedge of the garlic and herb in a wonton wrapper with some chicken, buffalo sauce, and celery for a buffalo chicken cup.

    Evil has a new face and it is Pepper Jack Laughing Cow. I can't keep that in the house or I eat the whole container in one evening.

    I'm trying to find that one, I want to try it. I love Pepper Jack.

    I mix together 3 hard boiled eggs (but only use ONE yolk), 1/2 tbs light mayo and a laughing cow cheese wedge (whatever flavor you like) and make egg salad. It's delish! I also like the cinnamon cream cheese one they have, spread it on reduced fat wheat thins and add a nestle chocolate chunk. Mmmmm helps that chocolate craving.

    I eat 'em all by themselves, right out of the foil... the cat gets the very tip. I also like to use them to make breakfast sandwiches... mine start with a whole-wheat English muffin, cheese wedge, fried egg, maybe some crispy turkey bacon if I have it on hand. Delish and much better for you than the kind they serve at Mickey D's.

    LOL my daughter was freaking when she saw I was just going to eat it "as is", not with anything.
