Stuffed olives are a popular appetizer made by filling olives with various ingredients. Common fillings include cheese, pimentos, garlic, or herbs. These flavorful bites can be enjoyed on their own or added to salads, antipasto platters, and cocktails like the Martini. Olives themselves are small fruits that grow on olive trees, primarily found in Mediterranean regions. They are rich in healthy fats and antioxidants. Stuffed olives combine the natural brininess of olives with the savory taste of their fillings, making them a delightful treat for many occasions.
