I'm not sure what I did wrong, but this recipe was a disaster. The spread turned out lumpy and curdled.

This recipe didn't turn out well for me. The spread was too runny, and the flavors didn't blend well.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some garlic and onion powder, and it was much better.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

I substituted chopped walnuts for the pecans, and it was still delicious.
