Excellent!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I had these at a neighbor's house the other night and had to ask for the recipe. I don't even like green olives and I... couldn't keep my hands off of them. They did not have the paprika and I don't think they needed it. They also did not need dipping sauce in my opinion either. I look forward to making them at our next gathering.Read more

Very dry-too much (olive)flavor-flour-flour-flour. Tried dippin' sauces and it did not help. Not for me, but maybe someone... else!Read more
