I have found a great recipe for homemade Boursin, and adapted it with a few tweaks, a couple additions and a few subtractions. Boursin is herbed cheese that originated in France. Enjoy, either with crackers, celery sticks, stuffed in plum tomatoes or sugar snaps, the possibilities are endless!! Enjoy!!
Homemade Boursin
1 cup farmer cheese
1 cup Asiago or Parmesan cheese, grated
8 ounces cream cheese (not the lowfat version, sorry)
1 stick butter, softened to room temp
1 tsp lemon juice
2 tbsp minced chives
3 cloves garlic or 3 shallots, finely minced
1/2 cup fresh parsley, minced
1 tsp minced marjoram, fresh is best if possible
1 tsp fresh minced thyme
Blend cheeses in large bowl
Blend in butter, lemon juice
Mix in rest of ingredients
Refrigerate for a few hours to meld the flavors together
