1 tablespoon finely grated onion

I used 'garlic and herb' cream cheese, garlic salt, and white pepper (can't eat that spicy stuff) and stuffed pea pods with it. They disappeared in a blink! I only had 30 pea pods, so I chilled the rest in a mould and it came out beautifully, fantastic with crackers. Three cheers!

Vic, this is divine, please give my compliments to your mum! I made this last night and was scarfing the whole thing down with some red peppers. I just made two changes: I added a good dose of Hungarian paprika (gave it a lovely color) and instead of a measly tablespoon of grated onion I added a handful of dehydrated onion flakes. Great dip to go with crudites!
