Tomato Spinach Spread Recipe

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 medium tomatoes, seeded and chopped
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • PITA TRIANGLES:
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 6 whole pita breads
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
  1. In a small mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, milk, salt and cayenne until smooth. Stir in the tomatoes, spinach and onion. Spoon into an ungreased microwave-safe 9-in. pie plate. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 5 minutes or until heated through, stirring once.
  2. Meanwhile, combine butter and oil; brush over both sides of pitas. Cut each pita into eight wedges; place on ungreased baking sheets. Combine cumin and lemon-pepper; sprinkle over both sides of wedges. Broil 4 in. from the heat for 2-3 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Serve with spread.
