  3. To serve, place the burgers on the toasted bun halves and top each burger with 2 Tbsp. of the olive spread. Top with lettuce and tomato and finish with the top of the bun.
  4. TWO-OLIVE SPREAD:In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, combine the olives, minced pepper, capers, parsley, and cayenne pepper and process till coarsely minced. Then use on-off pulses while slowly adding the extra virgin olive oil till it is absorbed. Taste for seasoning. Transfer to an airtight container and chill till ready to use.
