This recipe is actually for a cheese ball, but can be used as a spread also. It's one of the best I've ever had. And easy to make.

5 oz. jar Roka Blue Cheese Spread
8 oz. cream cheese
8 oz. container Cold pack Cheese Food with Onion
8 oz. container Ye Olde Tavern Cheese
Walnuts or Pecans if desired

All cheeses can be found in the dairy section of your grocer.

All cheeses should be room temperature. Beat together until smooth. Shape into a ball and refrigerate. If desired cover with nuts.
