My wife loves olives, so when I ran across this pimento olive dip recipe I had to make it.
This dip is fairly olivey (olive-ish?). It was great with something salty to dip into it, like pretzels or crackers.
I highly recommend that you shred or grate your own cheese at home. Don’t buy the pre-shredded or pre-grated stuff. It has stuff added to it to keep it from sticking together. That ‘stuff’ affects how the cheese melts. Shred it yourself and use the good stuff.
Also try my creamy bacon cheese dip.
