Creamy Pimento Olive Dip

This is a super creamy dip with the salty and briny delicious olive flavor, sweetness from the pimento, and tang from the cream cheese, and the smoothness from the sour cream, all balancing each other out to create this magical combination.  Add packaged ranch dip mix to round out the flavors and make it the perfect unexpected vegetable or chip dip.  Leave the sour cream out and its a great cracker spread!

Ingredients

  • 8 oz Whipped Cream Cheese or 8oz regular softened
  • ½ cup Sour cream
  • ¾ cup Pimento Stuffed Green Olives
  • 1 teaspoon Ranch Dip Mix

Instructions

  1. In a Mini Food Processor, add the olives and pulse until finely minced with most pieces about the size of rice, but still with some larger chunks.  Scoop out the olives into a bowl and set aside.

  2. Add the cream cheese to the food processor (no need to clean it after the olives).  Pulse until smooth and creamy.  Add the sour cream and pulse again until fully combined and smooth and creamy again.  (Note, if you want to use this as a spread for crackers, leave out the sour cream) 

  3. Add in the ranch dip, and pulse to combine completely. 

  4. Scoop the cream cheese mixture out into the same bowl with the olives and mix to combine.  Serve with veggies or pita chips or any other favorite chips.
