Italian Tapenade
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: none
This recipe was created as a side dish, dip, spread, to go with my keto reboot plan because so many of you are asking me what I eat and how to eat high-fat. I love making a ton of recipes on the weekend and then using it during the week and this one is dang good. I like to put it in my coconut wraps, dip Mary's crackers in it, or add some to my quick high-fat salad lunch. Remeber that anchovies are a superfood and you can't even taste them! I swear!
Ingredients:
- 3 teaspoons capers
- 1 cup pitted kalamata olives
- 10 leaves of fresh basil
- 4-6 anchovy fillets, yes the whole body
