Olive Tapenade
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.

- 2 cloves Garlic
- ½ Tablespoon Lemon Juice fresh
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- ¼ cup Green Olives pitted and drained
- 1 ½ cups Kalamata Olives pitted and drained
- 2 Whole Roasted Red Peppers (jarred or fresh)
- 1 ½ Tablespoons 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.
