Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by draining your green olives and placing them on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to chop the olives into smaller pieces.
  2. In a food processor, combine the chopped green olives with crumbled feta cheese, softened cream cheese, and minced garlic. Pulse for 30 seconds until well blended.
  3. Pour in freshly squeezed lemon juice and olive oil. Process for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute until creamy.
  4. Check the texture; if it's too thick, add olive oil. Adjust seasoning with black pepper or lemon juice to taste.
  5. Gently fold in finely chopped fresh herbs if using. This adds freshness and color.
  6. Transfer to a serving bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to meld flavors.
