Olive Cheese Dip

Submitted by Micki Lea

"This is a wonderful dip for parties or other get-togethers. It is a little different than your "traditional" dips. It tastes wonderful, too! One note: the oil from the mayo & cheese tends to come to the surface as the dip cools. When this happens, I usually skim off the oil before stirring it up/reheating it. A small crock pot or other warming pot will help keep it warm if it will be sitting out for people to grab as they want some."

I had company for dinner over the weekend and made this dip. The amount of mayo put me off when I was preparing it, but it turned out great, and two couples left with the recipe. One thing I did differently was to saute the onion and mushrooms with a touch of garlic powder before mixing with the other ingredients.
