Basic Vegan Cream Cheese Spread

Submitted by Enjolinfam

"Quick, easy, and healthy. I'm really excited to try this! I LOVE cream cheese but I try not to eat it much as it's not the healthiest. Hoping this will be a wonderful substitute! Another recipe from Neva and Jim Brackett's 7 Secrets Cookbook to lose weight, lower cholesterol, and reverse diabetes. If you want this meal to be completely vegan for you, don't use honey but use sugar instead. I personally use honey, but it's not vegan. Enjoy!"

I'm going back and forth about the stars for this one. I personally LOVED this spread, but I did like your onion one a bit more. I didn't have such great luck serving this to my omnivore family. Most of them did not care for it, with the exception of my sister-in-law who thought it was AMAZING. go figure. I will say this: after this sat for several days in my fridge, it tasted EVEN BETTER. I had this on crackers and whole wheat bagels
