I love a baked dip of any kind. This one is a little different.

In the summer, I gravitate towards super easy appetizers. I want to spend my time outside, hanging out with friends, watching fireworks and warding off mosquitos!

I love this particular appetizer because all it really requires in the work department is mixing a few things together. There’s so much balance in this dish; brightness, acidity, delicious fatty olives and some spice. It all results in a warm dip that’s perfect for spooning over a piece of warm bread. I usually like cold things in the summer, but this appetizer—while warm—is super light and refreshing.

Let me know if you try it!
