I was going to make regular olive dip for my book club but luckily found this one first. I had some larger raisins left from Christmas baking and used those. The dip was delicious and different. I served it with store-bought bread sticks and carrots, but next time I will make some really good crusty bread to do it true justice. Thanks for a keeper. -
I made this for a party and it was great! You don't really need to add the salt and pepper.

Hi Everyone! For fun I like to cook, eat and drink and occassionaly get out and do some exercise to balance out all the eating I do. Like alot of other people at Zaar I have way too many cookbooks and I just keep buying them (I can't help myself). My poor partnerdoesn't get much of a look-in in the kitchen department anymore, mind you he'd rather eat than cook, so we're a perfect match.
