Ingredients

Scale

For the Lemon Feta:

  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/3 cup Greek yogurt
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Black pepper, to taste

For the Board:

  • Assorted Greek olives (Kalamata, green cracked, Castelvetrano), about 1 cup total
  • Warm flatbread or pita, cut into wedges, 4-6 pieces
  • Sliced cucumber, 1 medium cucumber
  • Cherry tomatoes, 1 cup
  • Roasted red peppers, 1/2 cup sliced
  • Fresh herbs (oregano, thyme, or dill), a small handful for garnish

Optional Add-Ons:

  • Honey drizzle, about 1 tbsp
  • Toasted almonds or pistachios, 1/4 cup
  • Extra olive oil for finishing, 1-2 tbsp

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Lemon Feta: In a food processor or a mixing bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese, Greek yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, and black pepper. Blend or whisk together until the mixture is smooth and whipped, creating a creamy and tangy spread.
  2. Transfer and Finish: Spoon the whipped lemon feta into a small serving bowl, then drizzle lightly with a bit of olive oil to add sheen and extra flavor.
  3. Arrange the Board: On a large serving platter or wooden board, neatly arrange the assorted Greek olives, warm flatbread wedges, sliced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, roasted red peppers, and fresh herbs. Organize for easy grazing and visual appeal.
  4. Add Optional Toppings: If desired, finish the board by drizzling honey over the lemon feta, sprinkling toasted almonds or pistachios for crunch, and adding an extra drizzle of olive oil over the vegetables and bread.
  5. Serve: Present the appetizer board immediately or let it sit at room temperature for a short time. This makes it perfect for relaxed entertaining and effortless sharing.

Notes

  • Use authentic Greek feta for the best flavor and texture.
  • The lemon zest and juice brighten up the creamy feta, balancing its saltiness.
  • Choose a variety of olives to offer a range of textures and flavors.
  • Flatbread or pita can be warmed in the oven or on a skillet for extra softness.
  • The board can be customized with additional fresh veggies or nuts according to preference.
  • Store leftover lemon feta covered in the refrigerator and consume within 3 days.
