Any good recipes using peanut butter or cream cheese...

[Prairie~Phlox]

I have a lot of both due to couponing and am looking for some good recipes. Does not have to be together, but could.

 

Thanks,

I've made this "dip" or "spread" or whatever about 20 times in the past few years. It's been a big hit and there's never any left over. Tastes great on Ritz crackers.

I have a cream cheese potato soup recipe that's delicious! It's for the crockpot, but can easily be adapted for the stove top.

 

Five potatoes, peeled and diced

Onion, diced

One cup cooked ham (optional)

One package cream cheese, cubed

Three cups hot water

Garlic powder, salt, pepper to taste

 

All in the crockpot and cook on high for about four hours. As the cream cheese melts, stir it to incorporate and the results are a very creamy soup!

 

For the stove top, boil the potatoes and water until the potatoes are done to your liking then add everything else.

 

This is a Sunday dinner staple in the fall and winter in our house. We're having it today!

Jalepeno Poppers

 

jalepenos

cream cheese

bacon

--------

Take jalapenos and cut the ends off. Cut in half lengthwise. Core out with a peeler. Get all the veins and seeds out. If you really like it hot. leave a few seeds in! Stuff with cream cheese and wrap in a piece of bacon. I usually use half a piece of bacon per popper. Skewer with a toothpick. Bake on a baking sheet at 350 degrees. If I'm in a hurry, I pop the broiler on and get the bacon brown quick. You cook these until the bacon is cooked.

 

Creamy Baked Spinach

 

20 ounces frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained

1/2 cup mushroom, chopped

2 large eggs, beaten

1/4 teaspoon salt

pepper, to taste

1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Thaw and drain the spinach squeezing as much of the water out as possible. In a bowl, beat the cream cheese; then add the cream. Mix together until smooth. Stir in eggs. Next, stir in spinach, mushrooms, parmesan cheese, onion, salt and pepper until well combined. Transfer to a buttered casserole dish. Sprinkle with additional parmesan cheese. Bake 30-35 minutes until top is brown and knife may be inserted in the center and comes out clean.

Fruit Dip! Cream Cheese and Marshmallow whip blended.... ( I think regular cream cheese & small jar of marsh whip) You just whip together. I was first served this with nutmeg on top, but I don't like nutmeg much. It is delicious!!! I just serve without the top sprinkled.....

Both keep a long time, though, so don't feel the need to rush into using them immediately.

PW has a mashed potato recipe that uses cream cheese, garlic salt, onion salt, and Lawry's that is to. die. for. So yum!
