    I make this ALL the time. I am always taking it to parties and pot lucks. My family loves it. I just chop the olives and mix everything in a bowl. I roast the nuts in a skillet on the stove. Great recipe - Easy and Good - I have given out the recipe a lot.

    My entire family loves this recipe. However, I don't like olives, so I made it with marinated artichoke hearts and its awesome! So, 5 stars no matter what the veggie is! Great, easy recipe!
