Tapenade is a french dip or spread made from olives. My garlic black olive tapenade with parsley is fresh and bright. Enjoy it with some crusty bread, or be creative and find your own favorite way to use tapenade!

Recipe type: Appetizer
Cuisine: French
Serves: 1½ cups, or 6-8 servings
Ingredients
1½ cups black olives (1 can rinsed and drained)
4 garlic cloves (crush and let rest 10 minutes for added health benefits)
2 TBS fresh parsley, packed (or ¼ cup loose)
2 TBS capers
1 TBS each: lemon juice and olive oil
Instructions
Combine olives, garlic, parsley, and capers in a food processor and run until finely chopped.
Pour in lemon juice and olive oil. Pulse until you reach your desired consistence (thick and chunky or smooth and creamy). The post pictures reflect a thicker, chunkier dip, spreads should be thinner and more paste-like.
