Penny D. Leibner, my maternal aunt

Drain olives. Chop first three ingredients, separately, by hand or food processor.

Combine all ingredients.

 

This recipe is one that was given to me among a box of heirloom recipes by my mother’s sister, Penny D. Leibner, on the occasion of our wedding. She notes that she had used this “a lot for party sandwiches”.

 

I remember this memory that she added to the recipe… “I took this with us on our family vacation to Disneyworld in 1982. It is a large recipe and goes a long way; makes about 35 sandwiches (many more if you make dainty party sandwiches). Enjoy!!”
