Anchovy Free Black Olive Tapenade

Submitted by Sarah

"From The Australian Women's Weekly 'Tapas, Mezze, Antipasto and other Bites' As I am not a fan of anchovy and even though I don't think you would notice the flavour in a tapenade, they are not something I ever have in the pantry. So this quick and easy tapenade is perfect for me to whip up."

I don't really care for anchovies either, so am happy you posted this recipe. Delicious. Not the most attractive recipe to photograph, but still very tasty.

Made for Family Picks ZWT4 – Thanks for a great recipe, I never have anchovies in the pantry either, so this was just perfect. Now I don’t have to buy Tapenade anymore. Thanks for sharing Sarah.

Too good! I've been wanting to try Tapenade but I'm not into anchovies. This is perfect. Make as is. Wouldn't change a thing.

Delicious and simple recipe! This will go into the keeper file for sure. I had with crackers and on bruschetta. I made it with canned ripe olives, but will definitely use kalamatas next time--I think it would be even better. Made and reviewed for ZWT4. Thanks for posting.
