This recipe came to me when I stumbled upon a website that boasts over 2,000 cream cheese recipes. The recipe called for a bunch of herbs, most of which are available at my local convenience store, and if they werent, I just improvised. I decided to add mushrooms because it was a rather dreary day in the Chicagoland and I needed my fix of vitamin D. The herbs I chose to use were garlic salt, dried parsley, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and the results were fantastic. The meal took 30 minutes to prepare and the whole family loved it.
