      I tried this recipe from Ree's site and oh my, it makes huge portions and it is pretty cheap. Sadly, I am the only olive lover in the house and what I couldn't stuff in my tummy or store in my cheeks went to waste. But oh boy was it delicious! I am going to make it again, but this time I will make a small batch and just put it on Texas Garlic Toast, that you can buy in the freezer section.
