Easy Homemade Herb and Carrot Cream Cheese Spread is a very quick and flavourful spread which you can prepare in advance and keep in the fridge. In this spread, you can add your favourite veggies and herbs according to your taste.
I prepare this spread very often for my kid’s lunch box, as it very easy one. Actually, you can use it as a dip also, sometimes I munch this with nachos and it tastes delicious.
