Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 8 ounces shredded provolone cheese
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
- 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
- 1/2 cup finely chopped black olives
- 1/2 pound thinly sliced Italian meats (ham, salami, capicola mix)
- For serving: crackers, crostini, or sliced bread
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, provolone cheese, mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, oregano, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until completely smooth and creamy.
- Fold in the chopped green bell pepper, red onion, and black olives. Mix gently to distribute the vegetables evenly.
- Finely chop the Italian deli meats. Add the chopped meats to the cheese mixture and stir them in until just combined.
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. Cover the bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve cold with your choice of crackers, toasted crostini, or slices of crusty bread for dipping.
Notes
- You can prepare this dip up to 24 hours ahead of time. Keep it covered in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the mixture.
- If you prefer a chunkier texture, dice the vegetables and meats instead of chopping them finely.
