Herb Butter Spread
Restaurant Recipe from Another Source


My restaurant recipe for this Herb Butter Spread wasn't one I made up. I ran across it some time
ago when I purchased a carton of Organic Valley Butter, a product I always use.


Inside the carton I found this recipe and decided it looked good enough to put to try.


I made the recipe and used it with some sautéed vegetables one evening. My guests loved it.


The next night I used it on a halibut special and a chicken special. Both received rave reviews!

Thank you Organic Valley! This is really a great tasting enhancement for not only seafood,
chicken and vegetables, but is also wonderful on breads and rolls.
