ChupaNote: once you have the base cheese spread put together (cream cheese,

feta, lemon juice, white pepper, olive oil) you can add anything you like: mint,

capers, Kalamata olives, sun dried tomatoes, etc. It thins down beautifully with

warm broth, water, or additonal olive oil if you don't mind the calories, into a

great pasta sauce.
