Hello,just wandering what you can substitute for cream cheese as I have none on hand and would like to try some of the carrot and cream cheese recipes. I have too many carrots and need to use them up!! Just wandering if you have any good ideas?

Hmmmm… the only things I can think of are cottage or ricotta cheese (plus some butter, perhaps)?
Or yogurt?
