One more dip.....

This has always been a real favorite! Great with fresh veggies (carrot, celery, etc) or sea food. And with the holidays coming up....you can never have enough dips!

HERBED CREAM CHEESE

1 clove garlic, minced
1-2 teaspoons minced onions
¼ teaspoon salt
Pinch of dry mustard
8 oz cream cheese
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped olives
¼ teaspoon Thyme
Dash of Tabasco
¼ cup mayonnaise
Chopped parsley or chives

Blend together the garlic, onion, salt and mustard. Add cream cheese and blend together until smooth. Add mayo, lemon juice, olives, thyme and Tabasco sauce and blend. Sprinkle with parsley or chives. Serve with seafood or raw vegetables.

NOTE: This should be made up and allowed to sit overnight for the flavours to mellow. It’s got just a bit of a ‘sparkle’ to it!
