Bread with olives and olive oil

I adore recipes which are tasty and simple Everyone loves to enjoy food, but long-term sojourn in the kitchen is not something we crave. Holidays are on the way and good food is on our mind more often than usual. If you would like to taste something quick, tasty, warm and with a great aroma of olives and olive oil, give this recipe a chance. Bread with olives and olive oil simply rules!

Creative touch

This was the basic recipe, however, this bread also goes great with creative “add-ons”. In the summer, I love this bread with sliced roasted peppers and feta cheese. It would also taste great with dried tomatoes. However, this variant seen on the picture above – with sliced green olives from brine – is the best thing for the festive season. Bread with olives and olive oil with little mature sheep cheese and few drops of extra virgin olive oil makes a real treat – the Istrian way. 🙂
