  9. Yum! Very tasty and easy for most amateur cooks to get started on with confidence. Thank you Rik. I dont know why I haven’t been getting your notifications? A rift in the matrix ? πŸ˜‚

  10. The Italians absolutely love Philadelphia cream cheese, especially in the south. I've been to south Italy so many times I've lost count. In a lot of areas, it's so popular they just call it "Philly" πŸ™‚ This whippy up is not far from something they might do. Good one Rik πŸ™‚

  11. Love basil and love spreads! I have never bought pesto but this one will make me get some. lol I bet this would be good stuffed inside a chicken breast or a thick pork chop, baked with basil and garlic coating the outside. Ooo… I think I would even like this on a baked potato! Thank you, Chef!! Shirley in NH
