Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup pitted green olives
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Place the green olives, softened cream cheese, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and black pepper into a food processor.
  2. Process the ingredients until the mixture is mostly smooth but still has some texture. Scrape down the sides as needed.
  3. Taste the dip and add more lemon juice or pepper if desired.
  4. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl.
  5. Serve immediately with crackers or vegetable sticks.

Notes

  • If you do not have a food processor, you can finely chop the olives and mash them with the softened cream cheese using a fork until combined.
  • For a richer flavor, use high-quality Spanish green olives.
  • You can garnish the dip with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh parsley before serving.
