About
There’s something truly satisfying to the palate about popping a few olives in your mouth. A little bite of salty, crumbly feta cheese can really hit the spot too. Instead of paying a chunk of change for your grocery store’s olive bar, you can make a whole jar of marinated olives at home for half the price! This recipe has just the right combination of herbs and a splash of citric lemon to intensify the natural flavors. Make a whole mason jar full of olives and feta, and you have a great side dish to complement grilled meats or hearty meals.
