The possible uses for Tassos® Tapenades (or bruschetta) are only limited by your imagination, but here are few ideas:

Breakfast: Add it to your favorite salsa and kick up the flavor of huevos rancheros.
Lunch: Add it to an ordinary sandwich to create a Muffaletta.
Dinner: Add it to a basic red sauce to kick up the flavor of your pasta.

You could also very simply dress up a cracker or chip as an appetizer. Who doesn’t like to Scoop and Dip?

But here are a few more creative ideas: use it as a stuffing or add it to your own stuffing recipe for your main dish of beef, pork or poultry. Mixing into your rice side dish pairs nicely with a main dish of fish. There are several flavors of Tassos® Bruschettas from which to choose. But if you have a recipe, send it to us. If I post your recipe, then I’ll send you a Tassos® T-shirt as my way of saying “thank you!”

Tassos® Olive Oil is green because we press the unripe koroneiki olive to create our estate bottled olive oils. The unripe (green) olive is full of chlorophyll and phytonutrients. Chlorophyll is found in all green flora, and is what is used by flora to harvest the energy from the sunlight. 5 kilos of koroneiki olives go into producing 1 Liter of  Tassos® Olive Oil, and that’s a lot of phytonutrients! Additionally, since the chlorophyll reacts to light, this is the primary reason why we bottle in green tinted glass, that is to protect the chlorophyll and other phyto-nutrients in our olive oil from the reaction to light.
