Green Olive and Artichoke Tapenade
This tangy spread is delicious with crackers, such as Kashi or Whole Foods 365 Everyday Value Golden Stoneground Wheat Crackers (which are free of hydrogenated oils). The olives are a great source of monounsaturated fats.
Yield: 1 1/2 cups (serving size: 1 1/2 tablespoons)
