FETA MOUSSE

Feta Mouse is a yummy dip I made up last summer. It’s basically whipped feta with lemon and thyme and it’s the perfect refreshing dip for a warm weather day. I serve it with grilled pita triangles and add it to mezze platters whenever a variety of dips is called for. I’ve also used it to top appetizers and spread on grilled bread as a light spread.
