Pitted sliced olives are a versatile ingredient commonly used in Mediterranean cuisine, adding bold, salty flavor to dishes like salads, pasta, and pizzas. Typically derived from green or black olives, these slices are carefully pitted and preserved for easy use in cooking. Olives are rich in healthy monounsaturated fats, which support heart health and promote balanced cholesterol levels. They are also a source of antioxidants, such as vitamin E, which helps protect cells from damage. While olives provide minerals like iron and calcium, their high sodium content from brining or curing processes may be a concern for individuals monitoring salt intake. Moderation is key to enjoying their nutritional benefits without excess sodium. Whether complementing appetizers or enhancing a main course, pitted sliced olives are a flavorful and nutrient-packed addition to a balanced diet.
