quick goat cheese and olive spread

It’s nice to have a few quick dips and spreads up your sleeve for last-minute party plans or special treats. My sister introduced me to this Mediterranean-inspired spread and it has quickly become a new favorite, perfect for spreading on crackers, serving alongside fresh vegetables, or smearing on a sandwich.

Sometimes I find creamy dips and spreads to be a bit one-dimensional, heavy on the dairy and light on other flavors. This spread is totally different, with a well-balanced combination of sweet (dried apricots, honey), savory (olives, pecans, capers), and a bit of tang (goat cheese, red wine vinegar).
