Ingredients For green olive and cream cheese spread

  • 1 pkg
    (8 oz) cream cheese or neufchatel, room temperature
  • 3 oz
    (about half a jar) gr olives, drained - save juice - rough chopped
  • 2-3 oz
    (2-3 tbsp) saved olive juice, more or less to taste

How To Make green olive and cream cheese spread

  • 1
    Whip the cream cheese, with electric mixer, until smooth.
  • 2
    Add the olive juice a tablespoon at a time, mixing well after each addition. You want the cream cheese smooth, easy to spread, but not runny, so you may not use all of the reserved juice.
  • 3
    Stir in olives. If you can, allow to stand for 15-20 minutes for flavors to blend. Serve with crackers (I like triskets)
  • Last Step: Don't forget to share! Make all your friends drool by posting a picture of your finished recipe on your favorite social network. And don't forget to tag Just A Pinch and include #justapinchrecipes so we can see it too!
