  1. Heat 4 tbsps extra virgin olive oil in a non stick pan. Drain black and green olives and place them in a bowl. Add prunes and pickled jalapenos and mix.
  2. Add onions to the pan and saute for 2-3 minutes. Put the olive-prune mixture into a mixer jar. Add balsamic vinegar and grind. Add ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil and continue to grind to a coarse mixture.
  3. Crush garlic cloves and add to the onions and saute till golden. Switch off heat and add ground olive-prune mixture and mix well.
  4. Diagonally slice a baguette and toast in a non stick pan. Drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil over the bread and toast, turning sides, till both sides are a light golden.
