spicy giardiniera pizza topping











About a year and a half ago my husband gave me the most delicious pizza and pasta topping for my birthday.  We wanted more after we polished off the jar but unfortunately the store, Tuesday Morning, no longer had it.  After a long wait, my husband decided to find a recipe and make some.  It is delicious!  What I love about this recipe is that it is far less greasy- the store bought topping was marinated in oil which is not my preference.  We all agree that it is less spicy than the other but that's an easy fix! :)

spicy giardiniera pizza topping (my husband found the recipe somewhere?!)
1 green bell pepper
1 red bell pepper
1 big carrot
1 celery stalk
1 onion
5 jalapeño peppers
1 habanero pepper
1 cauliflower
1 heaping tablespoon minced garlic
1 heaping tablespoon dried oregano
1 heaping tablespoon red pepper flakes
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1 C. white vinegar

Dice all the vegetables and combine with the spices and vinegar. Add a little water if necessary and marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

2 little cans of diced black olives
2 big jars of pimento stuffed green olives
1/2 cup olive oil


Chop the green olives and combine with the black olives, olive oil, and the spicy vegetable mixture. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 days.
