Briny Kalamata and green olives get pulsed with capers, lemon juice, and fresh thyme into a coarse, richly savory tapenade that's all texture and bold flavor, never overprocessed into paste. Crumbled feta drizzled with good olive oil and a dusting of dried oregano sits alongside, ready to spoon onto crisp cucumber slices or a sweet burst of cherry tomato. Gluten free crackers round out the board, giving you something sturdy to scoop with while keeping every component naturally plant-forward and olive-oil-driven. A scatter of fresh parsley ties the whole platter together and makes it feel like something pulled straight from a coastal taverna. It's an easy, no-cook spread built on olives, capers, herbs, and vegetables — exactly the kind of simple, ingredient-driven eating this way of cooking is known for, and a genuinely solid choice for a Mediterranean-style table.

Combine the Kalamata olives, green olives, capers, 2 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, thyme leaves, and black pepper in a food processor. Pulse 8–10 times until the mixture is coarsely chopped and holds together but still has visible texture — do not process to a smooth paste.
Taste the tapenade and adjust with a small squeeze of additional lemon juice or a pinch of pepper if needed. Transfer to a small serving bowl.
