GARLIC SPREAD WITH OLIVE TAPENADE
I originally made this to emulate the sandwich spreads you get at the Safeway deli. (Those sandwiches are super addicting, but we don't live near a Safeway anymore!) This is a pretty perfect match and is SO GOOD on sandwiches, but also makes a very pretty party appetizer if you spread the garlic spread on toasted baguette slices and then top with the olive tapenade. I always use reduced-fat cream cheese and mayo. I have made this several times without the kalamata olives (they're more expensive so I don't always have them on hand) and we enjoyed it just the same. Recipe yield and prep times are approximate...I'm horrible at paying attention to things like that...

Steps:
- GARLIC SPREAD:.
- Add all ingredients into a food processor.
- Process until smooth.
- Remove to a medium bowl or spread generously on toasted baguette slices.
- Wipe the work bowl and blade clean.
- OLIVE TAPENADE:.
- Add the garlic and the black and kalamata olives to the work bowl.
- Pulse a couple of times until minced.
- Add the green olives and pulse a couple of times, leaving larger chunks of the green olives (for aesthetics).
- Remove to a medium bowl and stir in the vinegar and olive oil. (Additional balsamic can be added to cut the saltiness, if desired; keep in mind that the garlic spread will also help cut the salty flavor.).
- Spread a layer of tapenade over the garlic spread.
