Kalamata Olive Tapenade


For Kasey's party, I wanted to have some kind of bruschetta with a dip. Forgetting that Kasey doesn't like olives, I chose this. Awesome... At least I can say I've made tapenade now. Liz and thought it was great but bordered on too salty, so taste it before adding any additional salt. It's really easy to make because you put all the ingredients in the food processor.
