I once served it in a red pepper. I cut it like you would cut a pumpkin, and put the tapenade in. It looked great when I opened the pepper with the stem, and there was my tapenade!

I had this for dinner tonight with some hummus, onion bread and a side salad. What a treat!

I love tapenade and just recently learned that most commercial tapenades have anchovies in them. Your recipe just washed all of that sadness away! And, it is one of those dishes that is easy to serve at a gathering of raw and non-raw friends alike.
