Instructions

1. Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture:

   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, sun-dried tomatoes, roasted red peppers, olives, parsley, Italian seasoning, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

2. Shape the Log:

   • Lay a large piece of plastic wrap on your work surface. Scoop the cream cheese mixture onto the plastic wrap and use your hands to shape it into a log or cylindrical shape.
   • Wrap the log tightly in the plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.

3. Add the Festive Toppings:

   • Once the log is firm, unwrap it and place it on a serving platter.
   • Press the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, olives, roasted red peppers, parsley, and pistachios (if using) onto the surface of the log to create a colorful, decorative topping.

4. Serve:

   • Serve the cream cheese log with an assortment of crackers, baguette slices, or vegetable sticks.
