Olive and Cream Cheese Spread

So... I had a craving for olives, which never happens... and happened to have some garlic, pepper relish and cream cheese in the fridge, so I um... mixed them all together. 


I experimented a bit and actually wrapped the garlic in tin foil and tossed it on the grill as I made dinner for a semi-roasted garlic glove. It wasn't as squishy, but it was tasty.

Here's what you do, it's complicated, so pay attention. 

Toss half a brick of low fat cream cheese, half a can of pitted black olives, your roasted garlic clove, and red pepper relish (to taste) in a food processor. 

Here comes the tricky part. 

Push the "on" switch. 

Hard wasn't it? 


Thick, creamy, spicy and full of flavor. It is really good with wheat thins but would also pair well with pita chips (and wine, white wine). 

Enjoy!
