Bread Machine Black and Green Olive Bread image

I created this recipe after reviewing many olive bread recipes. The olives, rosemary and basil release a wonderful aroma while the bread is baking and the aroma and flavor carries through to the finished product. The green olives and olive brine also really bring the olive taste through in the finished bread. This bread is great for use with dips.
