Quick to fix and always delicious, this wonderful spread with its scrumptious blend of smoky gouda, bacon, purple onion and sun-dried tomato, goes perfectly with nearly any party or luncheon. I love to serve it with a crispy garlic bagel chip, like Stacy's, or it also goes well spread on pita bread or a warm chunk of Italian bread. Serve with the bread of choice, a smoky white wine and a salad for a complete, simple and satisfying lunch! —BeijingRose

  1. Mix cream cheese (softened at room temp), shredded Gouda cheese, Greek yogurt, mayo, and Liquid Smoke into a large bowl--whip by hand until well-blended
  2. Toss into the bowl your sun-dried tomatoes, bacon bits, minced purple onion and salt, stir until well-blended. Take a piece of sun-dried tomato, cut into a small heart with kitchen shears, and place it on top of the spread and garnish with bacon bits.
