Almond & Blue Cheese Stuffed Olives

Almond & Blue Cheese Stuffed Olives are totally addictive! Easy appetizer for a cheese board or your game day spread!

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!
