Recipe Introduction
"This is a great simple treat for a children's party where you want to give the children something hands on to do. It requires a little bit of advance preparation from you, and a little bit of clean up if your little monsters get over enthusiastic with the cream cheese, but it is a simple and easy way to let your party guests pick and choose what they want to eat. This is a loose recipe. Alter as needed for the number of guests and what is available in your area for produce. I like serving the cream cheese plain with no flavoring to allow for a wide variety of toppings, but if you are serving only vegetables or fruit, you can flavor the cream cheese with garlic powder, powdered ranch dressing, tang, orange juice, orange peel, cinnamon, or even a tablespoon or two of pumpkin puree.
