Serve as a Snack – Whether it’s Tapas, Hor’dorves, or having a Charcuterie Board, open a jar of Bertolli Sicilian Style Olives and set it aside with other little nibbles such as meats, cheeses, nuts, dried fruits, crackers, bite-sized veggies, and finger foods.

Spicy Nachos – I love every kinda of nachos but even more so when they are spicy! For my go-to recipe, I like using a sheet pan, layer a bed of tortilla chips and sprinkle a blend of shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses, pickled jalapenos, and sliced olives – making sure almost every chip is covered in toppings. Next, I put it in the oven and bake until the cheeses have melted. Lastly, I top the nachos with pico de gallo, and on the side to dip: sour cream and guacamole with sriracha.

Olive Toss Pasta – Adding these Sicilian Style Olives from Bertolli to any pasta will sure provide an extra kick to every bite. There are a ton of Pasta with Olive recipes out there and my favourites are the ones that don’t involve a lot of ingredients. It is as simple as heating butter, minced garlic and sliced olives on a skillet and tossing it into your pasta of choice, finishing it off with halved cherry tomatoes, grated Parmesan cheese, basil, crushed red pepper flakes, and drizzle a bit of the olive oil from the olive jar.

Tea Sandwiches – Top off tea sandwiches with an olive inserted with a toothpick or add a few slices inside your favourite homemade or store-bought ham or veggie tea sandwiches. And don’t forget to spoon a bit of the garlic and chili pepper from the jar and drizzle it in the sandwiches.
