The History of FetaFETA is a white, salty, semi-firm cheese. Traditionally it was made from sheep or goat's milk but is now also made with cow's milk. After feta is formed in a special mold, it's sliced into large pieces, salted and soaked in brine. Although feta cheese is mostly associated with Greek cooking, "feta" comes from the Italian word "fette", meaning slice of food.

I made this for a family get-together, and it got RAVE reviews. We love olive tapenade, so I used that in place of pesto, and I used more feta. Wonder, bright flavors, and a colorful spot on the table! You get a great return on little effort!
