How to make black olive spread

Open the can of olives and drain the juice in the sink

Slice up your olives so they make an O shape. Each olive should make 3 or 4 slices.

Put the olives in a bowl (easy enough)

Use a dough mixer to crush the olives into smaller pieces. If you don't have one, you can use a fork.

This is what it should look like. Don't completely demolish them. You want pretty substantial bits.

Now add the rest of the ingredients! Start with the olive oil and mix thoroughly. Then add the oregano, red pepper, and garlic powder.

Store in a container and chill until ready to serve.

Spread them over crackers or bread and enjoy!
