Cucumber Spread


CUCUMBER (CRACKER/BAGEL) SPREAD 

1/2 cucumber (peeled and cut into chunks)
3 green onions, chopped
1 (8 Oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
(I used lite)
1 tsp. worcestershire sauce
1/8 teaspoon salt

To make in the food processor: Place prepared onions in food processor.  Add chopped cucumber; cover and process until coarsely chopped.  Add cream cheese, worcestershire sauce and salt. Cover and process until smooth or a little chunky.  Transfer to a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight for flavors to blend.

If preparing this by hand,  finely chop the cucumber and the green onions.  In a medium bowl combine cucumber, green onions, cream cheese, worcestershire sauce and salt.  Beat with an electric mixer until smooth.  Cover and refrigerate overnight for flavors to blend. I LOVED eating it right away, but it makes a big difference in flavor when you let it set overnight.

Serve on a toasted bagel or crackers. 

I enjoyed it on cucumber slices.
