"Delicious vegan version of cream cheese. So good on celery sticks or crackers! And you can adjust the seasonings to your taste. I like to add a couple cloves of fresh garlic and some dried herbs. From The Uncheese Cookbook by Joanne Stepaniak."

I have the book, and this became so addictive I ate it everyday. MMM... Great on warm toast (Well, I use gluten-free almond rice bread from Food For Life, which is a heavy loaf, but toasted w/ Earthbalance is so filling and delicious w/ this spread! A must try!).
