Let cream cheese come to room temp if possible to make it easier to combine with the vegetables. Place cream cheese and chopped ingredients into a mixing bowl and combine either by hand or in a mixer with the paddle attachment. Mix until combined. If using the mixer it will take less than 15 seconds.
Transfer into a medium-sized bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate.
Smear onto crackers, toast, and/or your favorite bagels!
The combinations are limitless. Here are some starter ideas: olive and onion, fresh herb medley, jalapeño and scallion, mixed berry, everything bagel seasoning…mix n’ match!
Vegan and lactose free cream cheese can be used.
Doubling or tripling the recipe is easy.
The cream cheese will last for 3-5 days.
