Tuscan Olive Salad

March 9, 2015 by Angela LeMoine 14 Comments

Tuscan Olive Salad | LeMoine Family Kitchen  Your favorite olives mixed with red bell pepper, celery, garlic and meyer lemon zest.

 

A few fresh and flavorful ingredients really brighten up plain jarred olives. This Tuscan Olive Salad takes just a few minutes to put together and tastes amazing! Olives are salty and perfectly paired with sweet red bell peppers, crisp celery, fresh garlic and those gorgeous strands on meyer lemon zest. Great colors, textures and flavors… this covers it all! 

There are so many great ingredients readily available out there.  You can find a wonderful variety of olives, either jarred or at an olive bar, at your local grocery store. I love taking olives, throwing in a few ingredients and creating something really wonderful! I’ve done one mix with olives, garlic, fresh basil and sun dried tomatoes. Another variety i’ve made with red onion, orange zest and parsley. Whatever you really love, go for it!
