Although I did not get to try this myself, everyone raved about it at my party. I served it with an assortment of crackers and people kept asking me for the recipe. It's a nice mix of flavors. To save time and energy, I didn't do multiple layers of each thing - I only did one of each, so there were 3 layers in total. I put the dip right onto a charger - white on bottom, red in the middle, green on top. It eliminated the need for the baking dish/plastic wrap thing, which sounded like it could have been a disaster. I also didn't have time to let it sit for a while before serving, but it certainly didn't deter my guests. This was gone by the end of the night. It looked nice too.
Very tasty and lovely creation. I had to give this 4 's due to its richness. I had my qualms when reading the nearly pound and a half of cream cheese and over a third of a pound of butter. However the reviews below won me over and I made it per the instructions. It was indeed enjoyed by myself & my guests. However it made so much for how much a person could actually eat of it. And I had 20 hungry people! I think a person could cut the amount of cream cheese/butter mixture in half and use light cream cheese to make this more of a snack food of which people could go back for more.
I made this recipe for my Christmas Party - I followed the instructions exactly - it was a hit! Thanks for a great recipe.
This was very good. Instead of layering in a baking dish I choose to split the recipe and layer in bowls to give an "ornament" look. I then "decorated" the ornament with extra Pesto spread and added a Pesto "hook". It was very attractive and yummy!
Unlike others I did not enjoy making this recipe also find it expensive. It was tedious. I followed the directions exactly although halving it and I just did not find it tastey enough to go through all of the trouble again.
I made this for a holiday party with great success. The colors are perfect for Christmas. By mistake I didn't duplicate the layers and actually liked how it came out as you have a greater concentration of the colors. Have already had requests for the recipe!
MOST EXCELLENT! This spread is so full of flavor that it's sinful! A little goes a long way as well. I only made half the recipe to test it out and I can't wait to make it for a party. AWESOME!
This is so good the first time I made it I was asked to make it again for the next get together. I have tried making it with store bought pesto and sun dried tomato spread and it wasn't quite as good or quite as attractive.
Love it! Instead of crackers I use pita bread cut up into triangles.
