If you love garlic you have to try this.
We eat it with bread or crackers.
It'd be great with veggies I'm sure.
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 c yogurt
2-3 T mayonaisse (may be omitted)
8 oz white cheese (we usually use mozzarella)
Salt to taste (I never add any because we eat it with salty chips)
Minced garlic to taste (one clove to start, then add more if desired)

Rosemary-Buttermilk Scones
Recipe courtesy of FamilyFun magazine.
1 1/2 c flour (I used 1 c white, 1/2 c wheat)
2 t baking powder
2 t sugar
1 t salt
5 T cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 1/2 t minced fresh rosemary (I used 1/8 t dried rosemary and that was still too strong for me)
3/4 c plus 2 T well-shaken buttermilk
Coarse salt, for sprinkling (optional - I used some and they were too salty for my taste)
Combine flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or two knives until pebble-sized pieces form. Stir in the rosemary, then add 3/4 c buttermilk, stirring until the dough begins to come together (don't overmix).
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently pat it into a 7-inch round. Cut the dough into 12 wedges with a sharp knife. Place wedges on parchment lined baking sheet one inch apart. Cover with plastic wrap and chill one hour.
Heat oven to 375°F. Brush remaining 2 T buttermilk onto wedges and sprinkle with coarse salt if desired. Bake on top rack until golden, about 30 minutes, rotating baking sheet half way through. Move to wire rack to cool.

Yellow Curry Sauce
1 can Cream of Chicken soup
1 can coconut milk
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 - 1 T curry powder
Heat ingredients until mixture is smooth. Serve over rice and veggies. Love it!
I choose Cream of Chicken soup because I hate mushrooms but I'm sure any cream soup would work.
I buy a half gallon of coconut milk so I poured it into the soup can to measure...you can add as much or as little as you want depending on how thick you want your sauce. You can also use water or regular milk.
I bought McCormick Curry Powder and I love the flavor but it's almost too spicy for me so I use less than a tablespoon (I can't do spicy...especially this late in my pregnancy). If you prefer spicy you could probably use red curry powder.
