      Quite a lot of salt?

        Hi Cheryl
        Thanks for your comment. It is higher in sodium than our recipes usually are, so needs to be taken within the context of a day’s meals, which should ideally not exceed 2000mg. You could get the salt down a bit by making your own seasoning and reducing the number of olives you use.
        Warm regards
