Artichoke, Cheese and Olive Antipasto

By: chellebelle 
"A great way to start your Italian meal! I usually serve it with crusty bread slices that have been toasted in the oven until crisp for dipping into the marinade. Keeps for a week in the refrigerator and the longer it stands the better it gets!"
