Weight Watchers has changed their program. The points listed on my blog for WW points is for the old Momentum program.

I will be updating my recipes for the new Points Plus program. I am going to list the 4 nutrients needed to calculate the Points Plus for the recipe so that you can easily figure the PP per serving.

I am going to leave the old Momentum Points in case anybody is still following that program.

Tomato Spinach Spread ~ Taste of Home

8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/3 c. milk
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
2 medium tomatoes, seeded and chopped
10 oz. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 small onion, finely chopped

PITA TRIANGLES
1 T butter, melted
1 T olive oil
6 whole pita breads
1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. lemon-pepper seasoning

In a small mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, milk, salt and cayenne until smooth. Stir in the tomatoes, spinach and onion. Spoon into an ungreased microwave safe 9" pie plate. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 5 min. or until heated through, stirring once.

Meanwhile, combine butter and oil; brush over both sides of pitas. Cut each pita into 8 wedges; place on an ungreased baking sheet. Combine cumin and lemon-pepper seasoning; sprinkle over both sides of wedges. Broil 4" from the heat for 2-3 min. on each side or until lightly browned. Serve with spread.

YIELD: 4 c. spread and 4 dozen pita triangles
1/2 c. spread with 6 pita triangles = 5 WW points
