Ingredients

• 8 oz Cream cheese
• 2 oz Unsalted butter
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tbsp Fresh chives, chopped
• 1 tbsp Fresh dill, chopped
• 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp Onion powder
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 0.25 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Allow the cream cheese and unsalted butter to come to room temperature. This ensures they are soft and easily blend together.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and butter. Use a hand mixer or a wooden spoon to mix until smooth and well incorporated.

Step 3

Add the chopped fresh parsley, chives, and dill to the cream cheese mixture. Stir them in gently to ensure even distribution.

Step 4

Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix until these seasonings are thoroughly combined with the cheese mixture.

Step 5

Pour in the lemon juice and stir it through the spread. The lemon juice adds a touch of acidity that brightens the flavors of the herbs.

Step 6

Transfer the herb cheese spread to a serving dish or an airtight container if storing.

Step 7

Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld together, but serve at room temperature for best texture and flavor.

Step 8

Serve the low carb herb cheese spread with vegetables like cucumber slices, celery sticks, or low-carb crackers for a delightful appetizer or snack.
