• 2 packages of cream cheese (softened)

Combine the softened cream cheese, the dry Italian dressing, and the crushed garlic

Top with sliced olives

Serve with crackers, pita chips, or breadsticks

Variations: use sliced black olives in place of green (suit to tastes)

use half sliced black olives, half sliced green olives

arrange olives in a festive picture (fun with green olives @ holiday)

the recipe is a wonderful, savory dip (perfect for this time of year when we're bombarded with sweets) - super easy, INCREDIBLY delish - it's a wonderful, colorful dish for parties, pot lucks, family dinners/gatherings, etc.

My mom first tried this at a dinner for her work - asked around for the recipe - and started making it for family functions - it became a ROCKSTAR on our family party menus (practically overnight)
