Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup pitted green olives, drained
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Place the drained green olives, softened cream cheese, olive oil, garlic clove, lemon juice, and black pepper into a food processor.
- Process the ingredients until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides as needed.
- Taste the dip and add more pepper or lemon juice if you prefer a stronger flavor.
- Transfer the whipped olive dip to a serving bowl.
- Serve immediately with crackers, pita bread, or vegetable sticks.
Notes
- For a slightly different flavor, substitute half the green olives with black olives to create a mixed olive dip.
- If you do not have a food processor, you can finely chop the olives and mash them thoroughly with the cream cheese using a fork, though the texture will be less smooth.
- Chill the dip for 30 minutes before serving if you prefer a firmer texture.
