Rita shows you how to take your favorite olive blend and add flavors and herbs to make an impressive marinated olive mix. Serve with cheese and crackers for an impressive and simple to cook appetizer.


I made a variation of these in a class I taught recently and heated up the olive oil plus herbs, etc. and put the olives in the pan, turned off the heat, and let them sit until slightly warmed. That helped the flavor penetrate more, plus next time I'll try adding a splash of balsamic vinegar – that should help, too.
this looks like an amazing recipe. yum yum.
I love marinated olives, but the store-bought kind are usually too high in sodium! This recipe looks easy, and the lack of lots of added salt is really appealing to me. I'm going to try this recipe soon. I'm so glad I stumbled across it. Thanks!
Try using ones bottled in a glass jar or go to your grocer that has an olive bar and get the "plain" ones packed in either and/or oil or brine. The canned products can vary a lot in quality, etc.~Rita
Hi Rita The marinated olives look wonderful but I have tried marinating those pitted canned olives in the past with a similar mixture and I find that they just wont take the marinade in. As a result they keep that hard rubber texture, canned brine taste and just dont taste good. Refrigerating/marinating them didnt alter them in the least. What are your thoughts?
Good recipe.
