Instructions
 

  • Place walnuts in a pan. Toast over medium heat until several shades darker. Stir to toast uniformly. Be careful, they can start to burn quickly.
  • Pulse walnuts in a food processor, or coarsely chop.
  • Pulse olives in food processor, or coarsely chop.
  • Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
  • Let sit in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to meld and develop. It is even better the next day, so if you can, make it the day before though you may have to make extra so there is some left for dinner.
  • Serve with crusty bread or crackers.
