Start with Feta Cheese

The most recent issue of Real Simple has some great recipe ideas that start with the basic foundation of feta cheese. I marked this article and added it to my magazine recipe binder (more on that next week - it's a project I've been wanting to do for years and am finally tackling!) for ideas during the Athenos Change for the Feta - Summer Salad Month project.

I wasn't able to find the article online yet, so here is a scan of it. The best part is the remaining ingredients are pretty basic and no recipe has more than 4 ingredients to it. I love simple and delicious recipes. Great tasting doesn't always have to be complicated. I will definitely be giving some of these a try. I especially love the idea of the stuffed tomato. Kind of like a salad, except not in the usual sense. Do you have a favorite, easy feta recipe?

  4. Oh My Word! Those shrimp look yummy. I am one of the biggest feta addicts out there. I eat it out of the container as a snack LOL.

  6. I can always get excited about feta cheese. I love adding it to my tzatziki for a bit of briny flavor (particularly good on homemade gyros). Also can't beat it for a lower-fat pizza topping.
