holiday harvest cranberry orange pecan spread
What a special treat this was with our bagels and coffee this morning! A perfect recipe to tuck away for the holidays. Serve as a breakfast spread with bagels, muffins, or homemade rolls, or as a wonderful addition to a hors d'oeuvre tray served with an assortment of specialty crackers and toasts. A perfect blend of holiday flavors... cranberries, oranges, and pecans blended with smooth, rich cream cheese. And, as always, easy and economical too... my favorite kind of recipe! =)
