Recipe : Amazing Muffaletta Olive Salad

Ingredients
1 (6 ounce) can black olives, drained, brine reserved
1 (6 ounce) can pimento-stuffed green olives, drained, brine reserved
1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1 onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced

2 tablespoons reserved olive brine, or as needed
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions
Place the black olives, pimento-stuffed green olives, artichoke hearts, onion, celery, garlic, and capers in the bowl of a food processor.
