1 lb Cream cheese
2 tb Milk
1 c Tomato Salsa Cruda
1 c Cilantro Pesto
1 c Avocado Salsa
1 lb Cream cheese
2 tb Milk
1 c Tomato Salsa Cruda
1 c Cilantro Pesto

To prepare the Cinco de Mayo Spread, select a springform pan or straightsided dish that is 5 to 6 inches in diameter and 2 inches deep. Line the bottom and sides with plastic wrap, smoothing out the plastic as much as possible.
Beat half the cream cheese with the milk, so it is easily spreadable. Spread this mixture evenly over the bottom of the pan. Chill for 30 minutes. Spread the Cilantro Pesto evenly over the cream cheese and chill. Beat the remaining cream cheese with the Tomato Salsa Cruda and carefully spread it over the Cilantro Pesto. Chill for at least 4 hours. Place a serving platter on top of the springform pan and, holding the dishes with both hands, flip them over. Remove the springform ring and bottom. Gently pull the plastic wrap off. Just before serving, spoon the Avocado Salsa over the top of the spread. Serve~ immediately.
Yield: 6 to 8 servings
