Need an easy, fast G-F hor dourve? This recipe is delicious.
2 cans chopped black olives
1/4 cup red onions
1 can chopped green chilis
1 cup chopped tomatoes
1 clove garlic to taste
1-2 tbsp. of olive oil
1-2 tbsp. of vinegar
salt to taste
Then we ate at Helena's Mediterranean Grill restaurant and sampled tapenade, and hummus. The place was very amenable to gluten-free options. It was delicious, but I should have brought my own focaccia, wrap bread or crackers.
Yum, tapenade! I've just discovered a delicious new taste sensation for those of us trying to up our fat and sodium levels. Are there none of you out there? Perhaps you have been scrimping on salt and butter just for this occasion, and are looking forward to take a sodium/fat hit for a wonderful taste sensation?
Easy Olivada/Tapenade
I added about 1/4 cup chopped red onion,
1/2 tsp. minced garlic and about
a tablespoon of olive oil
and chopped the whole mass a little bit more. I threw in five pitted kalamata olives (but be careful, this can quickly overwhelm the flavor).
I served it on homemade crackers and with the spinach/artichoke hummus, it was an appetizer hit at the "welcome-home-for-a-week" party for the college kids (who jaunted back between semesters.)
We also ate baba ghanoush for the first time, and I have just one thing to say about baba ghanoush, but I want to say it ten times because it's so much fun on the tongue.
Baba ghanoush tastes wonderful!!!
Maybe I'll try to make that sometime. Hmmm, eggplant...
