Olive and Artichoke Tapenade
Olives are delicious and so are artichokes! Combine them and they make a fantastic dip. This recipe is super easy and can be made the day before or the day of serving it. You can make this tapenade with a food processor or just by finely chopping the ingredients with a sharp knife. I pretty much have all the ingredients on hand, so I can make it at a moments notice. I serve the tapenade with rustic french bread that I toast, but you can also use crackers or chips. I love a Chardonnay, Savignon Blanc, Pinot Noir or Cabernet Savignon with this tapenade. Honestly, any wine that isn't sweet will do.
