Marinated Cheese

This makes a very attractive dish served in a clear glass bowl or mounded on a tray, lined with crackers. It can be made ahead and purchasing the cheese cubes makes it an easy recipe.

Marinated Cheese Cubes



Marinade:

1/2 cup olive oil

4 green onions, coarsely chopped

1/2 cup fresh parsley

Dash Tabasco

Dash red pepper and black pepper

1/4 cup white wine vinegar (I have used red wine vinegar)

3 T dried basil leaves or 1/2 cup fresh chopped

3 T minced garlic

Cheese cubes I use a bag of Cheddar Jack, Pepper Jack and Swiss, which I buy at Sams.

Put all marinade ingredients in food processor and pulse til blended.  Pour over cheese cubes and toss.  Keep covered tightly and toss occasionally until ready to serve.  Better if made a day or two ahead to enhance flavors.
