A few years ago, we hit the olive bar at our local grocery store and were amazed with the grilled olives. I never thought to grill olives before! Use whatever herbs you prefer. You could also use black olives or a combination of green and black. —Debra Keil, Owasso, Oklahoma

  • 1 can (6 ounces) pitted green olives, drained
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 3/4 teaspoon each minced fresh marjoram, rosemary and thyme
