Step-By-Step Instructions
- Soften the cream cheese by removing it from the refrigerator and letting it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- While the cream cheese softens, drain any liquid from the roasted red peppers, olives, marinated artichokes, and sun-dried tomatoes, and chop them into small pieces.
- Combine the softened cream cheese with the prepared antipasto ingredients and fresh herbs in a mixing bowl, and mix until a cohesive blend forms.
- Spoon the mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap, shape it into a log, and wrap tightly.
- Chill the wrapped log in the refrigerator for at least 2 to 3 hours, or until firm.
- Once chilled, unwrap the log and place it onto a serving platter. If desired, roll in chopped nuts.
- Slice the log into rounds about one inch thick and serve with assorted crackers or fresh bread.
