Easy Green Olive and Garlic Dip

Every good football fan knows that the playoffs call for some fun snack foods. Even if your team isn't in the playoffs any more, ~sniff~. I made a great Pickle Dip a couple years ago and thought it was time to try something similar with another of my favorite munchies... This Easy Green Olive and Garlic Dip is very good! Of course, really liking olives (and raw garlic) helps:@)

Technically mine is not as loose as the one I saw so I'd call it a spread instead of a dip, 
but I'm guessing if you want it looser you could add more olive juice. This recipe is easily cut in half.

Green Olive and Garlic Dip-from My Life as a Mrs.
8 oz cream cheese-regular or reduced fat, softened
1/2 C pimento stuffed green olives
1 tsp olive juice-or more if needed
1-2 cloves garlic, grated-you know your crowd:@), I used one small clove
cracked black pepper to taste
  • Put everything in the bowl of a small food processor and pulse until combined. Scrape down the sides as needed. Serve with crackers or veggies-veggies? Oh yea, I do crack myself up some times...
Have a happy day!
