My friend Catherine came up with this recipe, which makes an excellent crostini when spooned onto toasted bread slices. This tapenade would also be delicious on grilled tuna, or tossed with pasta. If serving it with pasta, I recommend puréeing it to a finer texture and thinning it with additional olive oil.

Steps

1. Place all ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until the olives and tomatoes are chopped into ¼-inch size bits.
2. If too thick, add a little more olive oil. Season to taste with vinegar.
