Party special.
I wanted a cheese spread for crackers. Something easy, yet taste good. This recipe can be changed in many ways to meet your tastes. Chop some jalapenos, it's spicy. Use other cheeses, I love it with Swiss, Gruyère or Asiago. Any cheese with some flavor works very well. I would not consider this a dip, chips would crumble at the heavy texture.

Steps

1

I used this cheese this time, mostly because I wanted to try it (It's pretty good). But others work just as well. I think Swiss is still my favorite.
2

If it is block cheese, grate it, and place in a bowl.
3

Chop your green onion, smaller is better. Add to cheese in bowl.
4

Ready your onion. I like to thin slice it. I'm using a sweet onion here, red works great and adds a little color also.
5

Then finely chop it. A small dice works better in this. Add to bowl when you are satisfied.
6

Add your garlic powder to the cheese in the bowl.
7

Add your mayo to the bowl, stir it all together.
8

Serve on crackers, bread, toast, celery, relish plate or what have you.

My wife is disabled, she has M.S. And she finds it hard to cook from her wheelchair. I like a variety of foods, but hate tomatoes, so you don't see too many of my recipes with tomatoes on them. Also both of us have type II diabetes, so high carb and sweet is usually not on the menu either. We have one married daughter, and one that now lives in the Seattle area. We live in Texas, USA with our two dogs.Sorry I have not posted in awhile. Been taking chemo and radiation. and it has taken some out of me. Doctor says it seems to be working, so there is that.
