Using Cream Cheese for a supper entree
 

I have a couple packages of cream cheese that I usually use for dips
or cheesecake, but do not plan to use them for that. I want to use
them for a main entree for something for supper,but cannot think of
anything. Any suggestions? Could you put it in lasanga instead of
cottage cheese? I will also search for cream cheese recipes.

Thanks

Tom

I have an aunt who used to use cream cheese with macaroni. The recipe
was very simple. She would boil macaroni until it was tender, then drain
it thoroughly, return it to the pot, and add two or three pats of butter
and some cream cheese, then melt it gently by stirring it over a low
heat until the cream cheese was thoroughly mixed into the macaroni and
all melted through. This went well with tuna salad sandwiches. I never
met anyone else who made macaroni that way, and it sounds strange, but
its actually pretty good, and very easy to make.

That being said, if I had some extra cream cheese, I would go out and
buy some bagels and some lox and enjoy it for breakfast the next day.

How about both? Lobster cheesecake. A friend made it for dinner one night
and it was fabulous. I think the recipe came from Food Network.

---= GOLDIE LOX =---


scrambled eggs with lox and cream cheese
Bon App�tit | September 1995


Called Goldie Lox at Sarabeth's restaurant in New York, this delicious
dish gets its name from the golden color of the eggs, which are
combined with the lox. There are pockets of cream cheese throughout
this savory mixture, the key to creating them is keeping the cheese
cold until it is folded into the eggs. Be sure to have plenty of
coffee and an assortment of teas on hand to complete the meal.

12 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons butter
1 8-ounce package well-chilled cream cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
6 ounces thinly sliced Nova Scotia smoked salmon or lox, cut into 1/2-
inch-wide strips

Chopped fresh chives (optional)

Whisk eggs, salt and pepper in large bowl to blend. Melt butter in
large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add eggs. Using wooden
spoon, stir until eggs are almost set, about 5 minutes. Gently fold in
cheese and salmon and stir just until eggs are set, about 1 minute.
Transfer eggs to platter. Sprinkle with chives, if desired, and serve.

That's a good idea - but cheesecake would be foremost on my mind if I
was trying to use up a signigicant amount of cream cheese.

I make a cabbage and pork casserole...cream cheese is the base for the
sauce. Several tbsps of taco seasoning and cream cheese to be exact.

I'll assume it's the concord grape you have an aversion to, not the
cream cheese on the omelet.. I've had crepes and even blintzes with
cheese and concord grape jelly, tastes pretty good... a bagel or
english muffin with a schmear and grape jelly is a classic. I prefer
Freedom Toast with grape jelly rather than maple syrup... I prefer any
fruit syrup to maple syrup, I hate maple syrup.... why would any sane
person want to suck cooked to death fercocktah tree sap when they can
have real fruit... there is nothing natural about maple syrup, don't
let anyone bullshit you. Maple syrup is no more a natural food
product than knox gelatin... both are so altered in the manufacturing
process that neither has any resempbance whatsoever to real food...
save your dollars and use artificial maple syrup, it tastes
consistantly better too. There is really no way to know what/who's in
so called real maple syrup anyway it's a mystery product... doncha
think if it were an honest product there wouldn't exist all those
gubermint certifying agencies... supposedly overseeing the
manufacture, yeah, right... government.

Thank you! That was quick! It looks like a nice thing to try
when the weather here cools down a bit. Also, the basic
ingredients would seem to lend themselves to interesting experiments.

I hate grape jelly and wouldn't dream of adulterating my omelet with
cream cheese.

No grape jelly for me... any other flavor is fine.

<snip rant>

Not sure how you made the leap from cream cheese to maple syrup - but
in the future, I'll take your share of maple syrup and you can have my
share of grape jelly.

I sometimes substitute half the cheese in Mac & cheese with cream
cheese. Cream cheese is also great in mashed potatoes.

For lunch, I recommend slicing green olives stuffed with either pimento
or garlic and mixing those with cream cheese, then spread thickly on
lightly toasted crusty bread.

i like cream cheese well enough, but i seem to have a mental block
against cooking it. for example, crab rangoon sounds like a
spectacularly bad idea to me. or jalapeño poppers filled with cream
cheese.

That's an interesting comment, because I have recently found
myself thinking that mini peppers or chiles could be used for a
crab Rangoon-type stuffing. Not that I like crab Rangoon. Well
that's probably more because of my thoughts re authentic Asian
cuisine.

<pardon the snip>


Maple syrup is no more a natural food
product than knox gelatin... both are so altered in the manufacturing
process that neither has any resempbance whatsoever to real food...
save your dollars and use artificial maple syrup, it tastes
consistantly better too. There is really no way to know what/who's in
so called real maple syrup anyway it's a mystery product... doncha
think if it were an honest product there wouldn't exist all those
gubermint certifying agencies... supposedly overseeing the
manufacture, yeah, right... government.


The best way to buy maple syrup is from a local vendor in NY, VT, NH, etc.,
preferably one that you know and has been in business for as long as you can
remember. AND what many do not know is that there are several different
grades/colors of syrups.

The stuff in the stupidmarket aint MAPLE syrup-it's a conglomeration of lots
of crap toegther with corn syrup and stuff you can't pronounce.

I helped a friend make it many years ago. It's NOT something for the average
weekend warrior to do. Picture sap in your hair, in your nose, in every
orifice and everything you wear has to be thrown away at the end.
Figure 40 gals of sap for ONE gallon of syrup-boiled slowly over a hot fire
that continually needs attention. And it aint one afternoons work-it takes
forever.

Is it WORTH IT? Yes if you have never done it before. Just to have it in
your hand and say 'I made this'. But to do it on an annual basis? I'll defer
to the locals.

don't eat much of that, frankly. i guess i should have excluded baked
goods from my statement. i don't eat much cheesecake either, but the
idea doesn't strike me as wrong.

A friend of mine made the comment that when cream cheese is in a dish (we
were in a sushi restaurant at the time), it tends to dominate the flavors so
that it's the only thing he tastes.
