• 230 g cream cheese
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 120 ml (30 g) fresh parsley or fresh basil, chopped

• 1 tsp lemon zest
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 4 (160 g) celery stalks, or other fresh vegetables of your liking
Instructions

Tips
We used fresh herbs, garlic and lemon in this recipe, but feel free to experiment with your favorite spices!
Flavored cream cheese works well with cucumber, bell-pepper or carrot sticks, and with low-carb bread and sesame crispbread. And why not add some to gratins or sauces?
