In a food processor, combine all ingredients except for the olive oil. Pulse to chop.
Add olive oil and continue pulsing until desired consistency is reached. Add fresh ground black pepper to taste.
For best flavor, let the tapenade rest in the refrigerator for approximately one hour. This allows all of the flavors to come together. But, you don't have to wait...it's ready!!
Serve as an appetizer with baguettes, crackers, or chips. Serve as a topping to fish or other meats. Enjoy!
