Method

Spread: In large microwave-safe mixing bowl or serving dish combine all of the spread ingredients, except the tomatoes. Heat mixture in microwave until cheeses melt. Stir in tomatoes. Spoon into a colorful serving dish and serve with warm pita crisps. Pita Crisps: Heat oven to 400 degrees. Cut the pocket bread into quarters (or in half, if already cut into halves when purchase.) Split the pieces open so there is only one thickness. Spread out the pita pieces on cooking sheets where they overlap only slightly. Spray with vegetable oil spray and sprinkle lightly with garlic salt. Bake until crisp and golden brown.
