Ingredients

  • 1 package cream cheese (I use the 1/3 less fat) room temperature
  • 5 green onions - finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 - 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated (honestly I never measure the cheese. You can never have too much cheese!)
  • 2 tsp caraway seeds
  • Optional:
  • crushed and toasted nuts (I like walnuts or pecans)
