Marinated Feta 2

Marinated feta is one of my favourite things ever!

The real Greek feta is made with sheep’s milk. I don’t like the flavour of sheep or goat milk (or cheese) so I always choose one that’s made from cows milk. Apparently a cow’s milk feta really shouldn’t be called feta, but we won't go there. Choose whichever feta you like the taste of.

Marinated Feta 2
Makes 1 serving

Ingredients
  • 1/3 cup cubed feta
  • 5 olives, sliced
  • 1/8 cup thinly sliced cubanelle pepper, (or other small sweet pepper)
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon Greek oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon dried rosemary
  • salt
  • pepper
  • pinch of hot pepper flakes
Directions
  1. Combine all the ingredients and let them sit in the fridge overnight or longer. Serve with bread. I used rye today but pita is a good choice too. Flat breads that get crispy in the toaster are my favourite. 
I just started a cheese board on Pinterest because I LOVE CHEESE.
