Tapenade is a French condiment, traditionally made with olives, capers, and olive oil. My version, of Olive Tapenade it salty, a little garlicky, and pairs well with tomatoes. Always on my Bruschetta platter!
Olive Tapenade
I love appetizers and party food! If you want a delicious platter that your friends will really enjoy, whip up a batch Olive Tapenade, pop some Crostini in the oven, and prepare some Whipped Feta Spread. Throw some tomatoes and basil on the platter with all that. The guests can serve themselves, and they will love it!

- 2 cloves Garlic
- ½ Tbsp Lemon Juice fresh
- 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
- ¼ cup Green Olives pitted and drained
- 1 ½ cup Kalamata Olives pitted and drained
- 1 ½ Roasted Red Peppers
- 1 ½ Tbsp Capers drained
- 5 Basil Leaves chopped
-
Add garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil to a food processor and pulse several times until garlic is finely chopped.
-
Add all of the other ingredients and pulse several times until all ingredients are incorporated. You can stop when the desired texture is achieved. I like mine a little more chopped, some people like it chunkier.
Serve on crostini, on crackers, with Bruschetta.
