Fig and Caper Tapenade

October 10, 2012 by Dawn Pasco

fig and caper tapenade

This fig and caper tapenade recipe is from my friend Anne.  There seems to be an Anne theme going on this week in terms of inspiration for my posts.   It’s a quick and easy appetizer to share with friends at perhaps a little wine and cheese tasting party or any gathering.


I’m in the Fall mood and for some reason this appetizer has a Fall feel to me.   I think it’s because of the figs in it. It would be a great appetizer to make during the holidays.  If you’ve never tasted goat cheese, capers and kalamata olives this might be your chance to try something new.  I find the combination of flavors interesting.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

    Hi, I was telling Amy about this recipe yesterday and couldn’t find my copy. It must be at the lake, anyhow, I forwarded this post to her email using sharaholic. I hope that is how I am supposed to share things, technology is so challenging for me!

      Yes, thank you for sharing. I understand what it’s like to be computer challenged. I think we have to learn as we go especially when it comes to social media and cell phones. It’s all trial and error.
