Do you want all the health benefits of EVOO without all the oil? When why not just eat olives? Olives are a rich source of mono-unsaturated fats which benefit heart and brain health. Vitamin E and their various colors and provide a myriad of antioxidants, which help to reduce chronic inflammation and cancer risk. This dip takes inspiration from balsamic vinaigrette, olive tapenade and hummus, blending together olives with balsamic vinegar and spices for the perfect salad dressing or raw veggie dip.

Instructions
Step 1

Drain and rinse your olives. Add all ingredients to a food processor, and blend until smooth. Season with salt to taste (will depend on your olives), and store in the fridge
Step 2
Any type of olives will work. I prefer kalamata, but green olives are good too. Only use black olives if you're serving this to your worst enemy (can you tell I hate black olives?)
