Linda had a little Lamb says
This looks so yummy. I love, cheese, olives and bread, so this is a win-win recipe. Thanks for the idea.
Cheryl says
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.
I'm So Pretty says
OMG – that looks amazingly delicious!!!
