Instructions: Makes about 1 1/2 cups cheese spread and 4 sandwiches. LACTO

The secret to this great sandwich is the spread. Serve it with the bread of your choice, a leaf or two of your favorite salad green and a slice of roasted or grilled vegetable such as eggplant, red bell pepper or zucchini from your local deli or salad bar. For the next days lunch, top a microwaved baked potato with the spread.

In food processor, process cream cheese with garlic and Parmesan cheese until smooth. Add parsley and basil; pulse briefly until herbs are chopped. Add beans; pulse just until beans are crushed and mixed with cheese and herbs. Do not overprocess as some texture is preferable. Remove mixture to small bowl; gently stir in Gorgonzola cheese.

Lay muffin halves on work surface. Top bottom halves with arugula and slices of grilled vegetable. Top other halves with 2 tablespoons each cheese mixture.

Put muffin halves together to make sandwiches.
