My friend and co-worker, Misti, makes this beautiful dish each uear for the faculty. She serves it in a candy cane shaped dish (can we say "envy"), and it is always gone quickly. I'll be making it again this year for our Christmas Eve family time. I just know you will love it as much as well do. It's so easy and can be prepared ahead of time which is always a good thing.
Misti's Marinated Cheese
1/2 C olive oil
1/2 C white wine vinegar
3 TBSP. chopped fresh parsley
3 TBSP. minced scallions
1 tsp. sugar
3/4 tsp. dried basil
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
3 garlic cloves(or 3 tsp. of minced garlic in the jar)
2 oz. pimento drained
1 block cheddar cheese (cut both down the middle and alternate the cheeses)
1 block cream cheese
Combine all ingredients and shake well. Pour over cheese and marinate overnight.
Serve with Ritz or other favorite crackers.
Merry Merry Munchies will continue through New Year's week. I will be drawing for the giveaway and announcing that the second week in January. Thanks so much for joining in the sharing.
Merry Christmas!

Happy Holidays.
I love cheese and this sounds really good. I can't wait to give it a try. I will have to make this the next time my family gets together for a movie night.
