Notes
- Be sure and let the cream cheese set out at least for 30 minutes before making this recipe. It blends so much better when soft
- Drain the olive juice and squeeze out any other juice from the olives. This will help keep the dip from getting runny
- Use marinated artichoke hearts because it adds some extra flavor to the dip. The artichokes are marinated in oil and seasonings and it taste so yummy so just take the artichoke hearts straight from the jar into the dip
- Use a food processor or even a blend for this dip. It makes it so easy to create this recipe with one or the other
- After blending put the dip in the refrigerator at least for an hour. I believe this dip tastes best when served cold
- You can save this dip for 5 days when sealed and store in the refrigerator
