Why You’ll Love Greek Salad Feta Board

I love making this appetizer because it looks like you spent a lot of time and effort, only it’s the easiest party showstopper ⭐️! Ready in just 10 minutes from start to finish, this Greek Salad Feta Board features everything you know and love about its iconic older sister 🥗. Creamy whipped feta? Check ✅. Briny Kalamata olives? Check ✅. Alll the fresh herbs and veggies 🥒🍅? You got it. Red onion and tangy cubanelle peppers add an addictive bite that will keep you coming back for seconds – and thirds. Finish it off with a drizzle of really good olive oil 🫒, serve with a crusty baguette 🥖, and watch this board disappear right before your eyes 👀.

Ingredients

🥄 Whipped Feta & Plain Yogurt: I use a food processor to blend the feta and yogurt together until smooth and creamy. Using a high-quality block of feta (in brine) for the best flavor.

🥒 Cucumbers: Slice your cucumbers into half moons so they are easy to scoop along with the feta.

🍅 Tomatoes: Cherry or grape tomatoes work especially well and add a burst of color to the board.

🫑 Green Pepper: Select bright and crisp green peppers for sweetness and crunch. I use a cubanelle pepper, but pepperoncini would also work.

🧅 Red Onion: Thinly slice a small red onion to add a subtle sharpness. You could also opt for pickled red onions to add a tangy twist.

🫒 Olives: Kalamata olives add a briny, flavorful bite. Be sure to use pitted olives for easy snacking.

🧂 Salt: Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the top of the board to enhance all the fresh flavors.

🫒 Olive Oil: A drizzle of good olive oil adds richness and helps tie all the flavors together.

🌿 Oregano: Sprinkle dried Greek oregano over the board to add a classic Mediterranean aroma.

🥖 Baguette: Finally, use a fresh, crusty baguette for serving. Slice it on the bias for easy scooping, or try making your own with this simple recipe > Baguette Recipe .

Common Questions

Yes you can definitely line your board in parchment and spread the softened feta across the parchment the night before serving. Store in the refrigerator, and then add the toppings at the last minute, just before serving.

Cutting boards, especially wood ones, can hold onto contaminants and germs, even after being well washed. To ensure no cross-contamination with whatever was previously prepared on the board, line the board in parchment paper. Additionally, it makes cleanup super easy.

Absolutely! For a vegan version, swap feta and yogurt for a plant-based cheese spread or cashew cream.

Store any leftover whipped feta in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Vegetables are best eaten the same day, but cucumbers and tomatoes can be stored separately for a day or two.

Of course! Alternatively, add roasted red peppers, artichoke hearts, or even a handful of arugula for extra flavor, texture, and color.
