Garlic Olive Butter

Submitted by Margie99

"I think this is an easily adaptable recipe. You could use more or less olives, or you could do it by hand by mincing the garlic and finely chopping the olives. I got this from a Delallo Olive book, we can buy those locally by the pound. It suggests using some on grilled meat, baked fish or garlic bread. It freezes well."
