What to do with that olive juice? USE IT...

Add yogurt and a bit of olive oil to your favorite gourmet leftover olive juice and marinate, in this case lamb. I added smoked paprika and curry powder....I grilled and finished off in a 350 degree oven. The flavor was out of this world and incredibly tender. To accompany the lamb I roasted some seasoned tomatoes, grilled a few green onions, crisp romaine and crumbled ricotta salata. Tossed it with the few stray olives and made a simple white wine, agave and olive oil- S&P- dressing. In our home the great thing about pears is I check them every day until they are perfect...The pear has the power to present itself when it wants, not when I want.

Simple Knockout Salad

Corn Shoots, Sugar Snap Peas, Sun Dried Tomatoes, and Kiwi Salad with a Simple Balsamic Vinaigrette. 
And perhaps a few other things...? I think I see an almond...
