herbed cream cheese

One of my favorite treats is any kinds of herbed cheese spread and I've discovered that it is almost easier to make your own.

There is nothing better than using fresh herbs in any kind of cooking- they are so simple and delicious! I picked some of my favorites- basil, sage, oregano and a little bit of chives and I diced them up

I added the herbs to cream cheese- but you could use any kind of soft cheese.

I mixed up the cheese and herbs.

The herbed cheese could be used on all kinds of things- crackers, sandwiches, bagels, in recipes but my favorite is to use it with vegis.

I like to cut up a cucumber

and add a dollop of herbed cheese to the top of each slice.

Last I add a tiny basil leaf to the top of the cheese.

Oh how pretty!

And this my friends is one of my favorite things to snack on throughout the day!
