Do you know why I love appetizers? Variety. It’s why I love appetizer nights. A bit of everything tasty.
It’s definitely time to plan another big appetizer extravaganza. I am pretty sure this recipe will make it on to the menu.
I serve this with gluten-free vegan multigrain crackers. Once I’ve perfected the gluten-free vegan baguette I’ll likely serve it on toasted slices of that.

This is great cold too. Also, tapenade would be amazing in a pasta dish. In fact, I am going to experiment with this next.
