Recipe Sharing

Every once in a while I find time to play in the kitchen.  Recently I was in the mood for something Greek and so I created the following.  I would love to hear from you if you try these recipes or have a favorite to share as well.  

Olive Tapenade

1 Jar Pitted Kalamata Olives – finely chopped

1 Jar Pimento stuffed Green Olives – finely chopped

¼ Jar Almond stuffed Green Olives – finely chopped

1-2 Cloves Garlic – minced

1-2 T Sweet Onion – minced

1 tsp Kalamata olive juice

Mix all together and chill.

 

I make a Greek pizza with this tapenade but it is also a

great spread on a toasted, buttered bagel and broiled with

a slice of cheese on top.  I prefer Swiss cheese on this one.
