This didn’t seem like it was going to have much flavor but I was very surprised that it did have a lot of flavor. The only thing I did different was I used kalamata olives instead of black olives because that’s what I had on hand. Was quick to whip up for a lunch. UDATE: I’ve since made this several times with black olives and kalamata olives and every time regardless of the olives, it was delicious. Works as a great side dish pork chops or steak too.
