    Like its well-known green pesto cousin, this tapenade is easy to make and ready in no time. Finely chop the pistachios in a chopper—or if you don't have one, use your blender or food processor. Remove the chopped pistachios and set them aside. Put all the ingredients in the chopper and puree and pulse until the tapenade is smooth and a beautiful green. Use enough olive oil to make the tapenade silky.Serve this delicious pistachio-mint tapenade on toast or bread, but it's also great with chicken or lamb.
