    List of Ingredients




    1 square loaf focaccia bread, about 9x7x2 inches (23x18x5 cm)
    1/2 cup (125 mL) kalamata olives
    370 mL jar roasted red peppers, drained or 2 large home-roasted peppers
    6 oz (170 mL) jar marinated artichoke quarters, drained
    4 small plum tomatoes
    4 green onions
    2 (227 g) containers tzatziki dip, about 2 cups (500 mL)

    Recipe



    1. Using a serrated knife, cut out centre of bread, leaving a 1-inch- (2.5-cm-) thick border around edge of loaf and about 1/2 inch (1 cm) on bottom. Do not cut through to bottom crust. Hollow out focaccia by cutting out bread in large chunks. Cut these chunks into small pieces for dipping.

    2. Pit olives by smashing them with flat edge of a large knife. Discard pits, then coarsely chop olives. Pat peppers dry with paper towels. Slice into 1/2-inch (1-cm) pieces. Cut artichokes in half. Slice tomatoes into quarters. Squeeze out and discard seeds, then chop. Thinly slice onions diagonally. Combine in a large bowl. Add tzatziki. Gently stir until vegetables are coated. Turn mixture into bread shell. Place shell on a large platter and surround with bread chunks. Serve immediately or refrigerate, covered, up to 4 hours. Serve with additional crackers, celery and endive pieces for dipping or baguette slices for spreading, if you wish.
