Super Picks: The Laughing Cow Wedges Light Creamy Swiss

What were loving today...The Laughing Cow Wedges Light Creamy Swiss

We are in L-O-V-E with this decadently rich spreadable cheese. With just 35 calories and 1.5 grams of fat for 21 grams VS. the typical cheese spread's 80 calories and 4 grams of fat, you can savor cheesy awesomeness without adding to your waistline. The individual wedges are a perfect sized portion, not too big or small, and come 8 in a round, portable pack - making them easy to fit into even the tiniest fridge. They also last quite some time and pack the same tasteful creaminess of any full fat cheese.

We have so many ideas of how to pair your delicious cheese wedge and make a healthy snack or meal...

#1 Eat it plain

#2 Pair with crackers


Our pick, Special K multigrain crackers with 24 for just 120 calories
Another option: Glenny's Soy Crisps

#3 Melt in a saucepan with veggies, pour in some egg whites and voila! Omelet!


#4 Mayo swap!!!! 

Replace these wedges on your baguette, breads, wraps etc. for the same smooth creaminess but an added flavored bonus

#5 Mix with avocado for cheesy guacomole



#6 Melt on pasta, top with Parmesan and a tbsp of whole milk/cream for fettuccine like dish wayyyy lower in calories and fat



#7 Toast whole wheat pita, spread with cheese, top with tomato sauce and basil for an easy peasy delicious low calorie pizza


Top with veggies for an added boost of flavor, texture and nutrients
