A five star recipe! Since someone complained about theirs being watery I added the salt to the celery and carrot and then squeezed them out. It came out perfect.

    This stuff ROCKS!! I love it!! I used reduced-fat cream cheese, and left out the radish/upped the other veggies a bit to make up for it. Instead of hot sauce, I added a dash of dried dill & I doubled the pepper, using fresh cracked pepper. I couldn't wait 24 hours to eat this, so I smeared some on a sliced baguette for a light Sunday lunch with a glass of wine. Y-U-M.

    This has a perfect blend of "garden" flavors. No one veggie dominates the flavor. I guess the veggies watered down the cream cheese because mine was a little runny, even after being refrigerated. We enjoyed this on everything bagels for lunch today, but I think it would make a fantastic veggie dip. I used my food processor, but I think using a mixer would have been a better idea to keep the veggies from being broken down and to keep the cream cheese more solid. Great flavor, though! Thanks Sharon!
