I LOVE OLIVES AND CREAM CHEESE SPREAD



I Love Olives and Cream Cheese Spread image

What's not to love? This is an easy make-ahead appetizer that takes 15 minutes to prepare and is so yummy it will be gone 15 minutes after you set it on the table. Pitted black olives and pimiento-stuffed Spanish/Manzanilla olives make it look as colorful as it is delicious. Serve it with crackers or crispinis. I also use it as a sandwich spread...it really spruces up a plain old cold-cut or deli sandwich.

OLIVE SALAD CREAM CHEESE SPREAD



Olive Salad Cream Cheese Spread image

I make this spread as part of a tapas platter, and it always disappears. I use all kinds of olives, including Kalamata, Nicoise, garlic stuffed, Manzanillas, etc. I serve water crackers with pepper, or other crackers that have a little kick. This spread is also great on toasted mini onion bagels.

MUFFULETTA SPREAD



Muffuletta Spread image

This simple spread is reminiscent of a classic New Orleans muffuletta sandwich. This can be served on crackers, toasted bagels, or crostini. Also a nice addition to a pasta salad, a cheese board, or spooned on to grilled fish, pork or chicken. It will keep for up to a month in a tightly sealed container in the fridge.
