Description

This Olive Sandwich Spread is a versatile and flavorful condiment perfect for elevating simple sandwiches or serving as a dip for crackers. The combination of creamy softened cream cheese and tangy mayonnaise creates a smooth base that is beautifully contrasted by the briny punch of chopped green olives and the rich, buttery crunch of pecans. It offers a delightful mix of textures and savory notes that make it an ideal addition to lunch boxes, party platters, or quick weeknight meals. Easy to whip up with pantry staples, this spread adds a gourmet touch to any bread or cracker without requiring any cooking time.

Note

Store any leftover spread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

For a nut-free version, substitute the pecans with additional chopped olives or omit them entirely.

If the spread is too thick, add a splash more olive juice or a teaspoon of milk to reach your desired consistency.

This spread pairs wonderfully with crusty baguettes, pita bread, or plain saltine crackers.
