Mixed boards of small bites are all the rage these days for lighter dinners or grazing meals. Enjoy this lightened up version of a traditional Spanish bar food ideal when paired with a small green salad and a bowl of nuts, such as Marcona almonds. If you are entertaining, this dish is sure to please a crowd and takes under 30 minutes to prepare. he olive mixture can be made up to 24 hours in advance and stored in the refrigerator overnight in an airtight container. For a more spicy, flavorful olive spread, add a few pinches of dried crushed red pepper flakes, paprika, or cayenne pepper. Make sure your artichokes and peppers are not labeled “marinated”—which often means the vegetables are packed in oil.
