Just like their namesake oil, olives are rich in monounsaturated fats that help protect your heart and antioxidants that reduce inflammation. Different ripening and curing processes create varieties in a vast array of flavors and colors. “Olives may be small,” says 10-time marathoner Pam Anderson, “but their briny, piquant flavor brings ordinary ingredients to life.” She incorporates the fruit (yes!) into Mediterranean-inspired dishes, like pizzas and salads. Anderson's latest cookbook, ½ ribs celery, diced small, plus ¼ cup celery leaves, is a memoir-with-recipes that she wrote with her two daughters.
