Garlic Parmesan Olives
                      Why I Love This Recipe
"Marinated olives--with a decidedly Italian flavor--are chilled for one hour prior to serving."
I usually double or triple this recipe.. and I usually add less cheese and a little more basil and black peppter.. Do this several time and add or subtract the seasonings as needed..
Totally wonderful.
I pinched this recipe from Jake Bryan - AllRecipes.com, but I've added it to my collection.
Ingredients You'll Need
                                     1 (6 ounce) can black olives, drained
                    
                                     1 clove garlic, minced
                    
                                     1/2 teaspoon dried basil
                    
                                     1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
                    
                                     1 tablespoon olive oil
                    
                                     3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (the real stuff, not the green bottle shaky stuff) I used the bagged already shredded up cheese and then chopped it even more)
                    
                               
Directions
In a small bowl, combine olives, garlic, basil, and black pepper.
Stir in the olive oil and Parmesan cheese.
Stir well and chill, covered for at least one hour before serving.
