Herb Cream Cheese

Herb Cream Cheese is a soft, spreadable fresh cheese commonly used as a bagel topping, in cheesecakes, dips and creamy sauces; it is associated with American and European cooking traditions. It is relatively high in fat at 33.5g per 100g, with a large portion as saturated fat, and also provides modest amounts of protein and vitamin A. While it offers a high-quality amino acid profile, it contains little to no fiber, so swapping to lower-fat or dairy-alternative spreads can reduce saturated fat and calories while keeping a similar texture in recipes.
