Hey Linda...I have used Scott KCK's recipe for stuffed olives for
years...and they are easy, yummy and soooo much cheaper than the
commercially produced product.
Just get a jar of the largest stuffed olives you can find...Sam's club has
queen olives that I use. Dump them, with juice in a large bowl and pull the
pimentos out. Stuff the holes with your choice of sliced peppers (I'm a
moderate so I use Jals)...I don't cook them at all, keeps them hotter...and
pack them back into the jar. Throw in a few cloves of garlic if you like
that taste and fill the jar with the same brine you poured off. If there is
room you can add in a few of the rejected pimento pieces. Yes, all that WILL
go back into the jar but if you have a lot of trouble, you can always repack
them into a larger jar. Cap tightly and refrigerate for about three weeks
before you eat the first one. These are great and they keep getting greater
as they age.
