instructions
    1

    Begin by taking 8 ounces of cream cheese out of the refrigerator and letting it soften at room temperature for about 10 minutes.

    2

    In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with 1 cup of cooked turkey that has been shredded or diced.

    3

    Add 2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt to the turkey and cream cheese mixture; this will add some tanginess and creaminess.

    4

    In the same bowl, mix in 1 tablespoon of mustard, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper.

    5

    Thoroughly mix all the ingredients together using a spatula until everything is well combined and creamy; this should take about 2-3 minutes.

    6

    If you prefer a smoother texture, you can blend the mixture using a food processor for just a minute.

    7

    Once mixed, taste the spread and adjust any seasoning if necessary.

    8

    Transfer the Cream Cheese Turkey Spread to a serving bowl and either serve immediately or refrigerate for an hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
