    Almond & Blue Cheese Stuffed Olives

    Almond & Blue Cheese Stuffed Olives are the perfect easy appetizer! Totally addictive and just the right combo of salty, crunchy and a little funk from the blue cheese!

    Now, obviously you have to like olives. And almonds. And blue cheese. Because this easy appetizer combines all three in a crazy good mash up that is surprisingly delicious!

    Salty olives.

    Crunchy, nutty almonds.

    Funkified blue cheese.

    This is good stuff people.

    In order to have room for both an almond and blue cheese, you will need to buy the large green olives. Mine were called queen olives ... loved that! Anyway, the green olives I found were stuffed with pimentos, so I used a bamboo skewer to push them out from the bottom of the olive.

    I bought a wedge of blue cheese from my local grocery store's fancy cheese counter for about $4 but feel free to use the blue cheese crumbles that you can find by the shredded and sliced cheese. My 'fancy' blue cheese definitely brought the funk, ya'll!

    Anyway, just stuff the hole left by the pimento with some blue cheese and pop in an almond. Done and done!

    If you really can't do blue cheese, you can try feta, cream cheese or even garlic & herb spreadable cheese. I can't imagine any of those would be awful ... I mean, c'mon ... cheese!
