Hi Martha, I'm so glad to see this recipe! It reminds me of a cream cheese spread that Kraft used to put out years ago, and I loved it. Your recipe looks like something I would love even more, what with all those flavors and textures going on! Thanks for sharing...I will be making this for our Thanksgiving gathering this weekend.I've cooked/tasted this recipe!
