Culinary Adventures with Camilla

Christie of  A Kitchen Hoor's Adventures  has our blogging group sharing rice recipes this week. She wrote: "Rice is such a versatile and buget friendly ingredient. From tossed into salads, added to stuffing, or just plan buttered with salt and pepper, it's the best side dish!" I am looking forward to getting all sorts of new rice recipes as it's still on my okay-to-eat list. But that's a story for another day.  I made this dish for a friend's birthday celebration last year. Last year! But I haven't had a chance to post about it. Geez...

Last summer, when R and I were brainstorming about the dessert course for his Mediterranean fundraising dinner, I mentioned cantucci because I knew they were something I could do ahead of time...and easily. We discussed different combinations and he remembered when I made a chocolate-olive version before. "That's unique and interesting, Mom. Can you make that again?" Sure thing!  Somehow I neglected to post a recipe. I remedy that today as the From Our Dinner Table group posts about all things chocolate.
