Garden to Table

• Olives have a rich, hearty, distinctive flavor characterizing Middle Eastern and Mediterranean foods for millennia
• Eat olives right from the jar or slice for salads, pizza topping, breads, meat or vegetable dishes
• Use oil pressed from olives drizzled by itself over breads, vegetable medleys, or pasta noodles or blended with spices in salad dressings and marinades
• Start every soup or cooked greens recipe by sautéing leeks, onions and/or garlic in olive oil
• Tapenades feature olives and olive oil blended with other ingredients into a paste consistency for spreading on bread or garnishing a hearty meat dish
