Green Olive Tapenade
Updated: Mar 10, 2019
Going off eggs is definitely making me more creative with my recipes. I've been on the lookout for some new ways to eat fish and this one's a keeper!
I looooove olives. I've been on an olive kick for a few months now - ever since I came across Co-op's PURE Green Olives stuffed with Citrus. Finally some olives I can find locally without any weird additives.
This is a really simple recipe - the food processor does all the work and the tapenade packs a big flavor punch! It's a great pair for a mild fish like trout or chicken. I really enjoy it with cauli-rice, roasted veggies and fresh herbs. Feel free to add garlic if you tolerate it - that would be delicious!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup green olives (I used Co-op's PURE Green Olives stuffed with Citrus)
3 Tbsp capers (I used Amphora Organic Capers)
3 Tbsp olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
Pinch of salt
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until finely chopped. Enjoy!
