creamy chicken and carrot spread

Variations

 

For a lighter version, substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or skip it altogether. The spread will still be creamy but with fewer calories. You can also add herbs like parsley, dill, or chives for a fresh, aromatic twist.

If you prefer a bit of texture, pulse the ingredients briefly instead of blending until completely smooth.

This will leave small chunks of chicken and carrots for a more rustic feel. Another variation includes adding a pinch of smoked paprika or cumin for a subtle smoky or earthy flavor.

For a dairy-free alternative, replace the cream cheese or ricotta with avocado or hummus. This not only makes the spread vegan-friendly but also adds a unique richness.

Experiment with different spices or citrus zest to customize the taste to your liking.
