Zucchini tends to spread—across bread, crackers and veggies—when this recipe is served at a reception, potluck or casual get-together. It makes enough to satisfy a crowd. —GaleLynn Peterson, Long Beach, California

Fantastic! I love Garlic but if you are serving this to a large group of people 4 cloves may be a better amount.

I like zuchinni almost any way but this is the best use I've found for it. Oh, my goodness! It is addictive! 8 cloves of garlic is pretty potent. Just right for us but anyone stepping in the room can smell it!

This will make your taste buds perk up and try to figure out what kind of ingredients are in this spread.

I made the and the whole family loved it. I used three variations. I used 10 cloves of garlic. I used a high grade of Greek olive oil, I cut down on the cream cheese and added plain Greek yogurt. The yogurt gave it a little tartness and made it more spreadable. Next time I make it I am going to add some lemon juice and a little fresh chopped thyme to give it more of a Greek identity.

This was so good, and everyone loved it! I made half the recipe amount, using a smaller jar of artichoke hearts, and subbed parsley for the cilantro. Will definitely make this again!

any suggestions on what i could substitute for the ripe olives? I'm not a fan of the black (love green, greek, etc) and my husband hates them! Could I sub greek olives for them?

We apologize for an error in this recipe. It should be 8 cloves of garlic (instead of 18). That may still seem high to some, but this makes 6 cups of spread. You can always start with less garlic if desired.This error will be corrected soon.Taste of Home Test Kitchen
