A good Italian-Mexican fusion dish with some zing to it. The recipe didn't say to slice the olives, so I didn't. But you should at least cut them in halves, I would say. I used Hormel tamales, but am not sure if I could distinctly taste them. But overall this was filling and excellent!

Wonderful and simple. For hungry groups use two packs of tamales.
