    The Third Fabulous Friday Feta Giveaway!

    Updated: Oct 16, 2020 by greenlitebitescom · This post may contain affiliate links · 67 Comments

    Time to announce the winner of last week's Fabulous Feta Giveaway! Please congratulate Hila! She will be receiving the Athenos prize pack that includes the following items:

    Fabulous Friday Feta Giveaway

    • ATHENOS Feta coupon
    • ATHENOS Feta “Shape Up Your Salad” recipe booklet
    • ATHENOS Feta water bottle
    • Life Time Fitness 1-month membership
    • Fit & Fresh salad container
    • Built NY lunch bag <---dude! I wanted one of these things for awhile now!

    Unlike me, Hila grew up with feta.

    We always had feta growing up. My mom would you use in savory bakes dishes and in salads!

    I had SO much fun reading everyone's feta stories! SO fun! I've been racking my brain for another fun question this week. We talked salads, we swapped feta stories, now I want to know your favorite non-traditional way to use feta. If you really only use it on salads try to break out of your comfort zone and get creative. What else can we use this versatile cheese for?

    To enter simply leave a comment with your creative feta idea before next Friday and I will randomly select winner from the comments and announce when I launched the next weeks giveaway.

    Good luck!

      I always seem to have feta with spinach in some form. Our favorite pizza, whether homemade or bought is feta, spinach, and tomato. One local pizza place calls it The Hippie and drizzles olive oil and spices, sooo yummy! I make the same 3 ingredients in omelets often too, or will order them out. Feta in a greek pita is great too.

      I like to mix herb feta with fat free cream cheese and garlic and stuff into the mini peppers you can buy in the produce section of trader joes. Then spray them with a little olive oil and pop those little stuffed peppers into the oven (I just use my toaster oven so I don't heat up the kitchen) for 10-15 minutes or until warm. sooooo yummy.

      thanks roni! love your blogs!!

      I put feta on my baked potato fries. I bet they would taste delicious on baked sweet potatoes, topped with some aioli.

      And I also put feta on pasta with grilled chicken, some stir-fried spinach, onions, garlic, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, a bit of basil and a dash of lemon juice. Noms.

      I don't know how non-traditional it is, but my husband makes a mean Caesar chicken wrap, using feta in place of parmesan. Throw some kalamata olives in that thing, some baby romaine, and it is bangin! It seems to be even better after wrapping it up in plastic wrap for an hour or so (letting the flavors mingle), and using it as picnic fare. Mmmm! The best!

      We went to GReece on our honeymoon, and when we were there we had the best feta "spread". Take a block of feta (not the all crumbled up kind)and pour olive oil, dried oregano and pepper on it, wrap it up in foil and throw on the grill to soften up. So good on bread......

      My favorite is stuffed chicken... pound a chicken breast flat (about 1/4 - 1/2 inch thick), put spinach, feta, and roasted red pepper in the center. Fold the chicken over and coat with a mixture of bread crumbs and fresh herbs. Bake in the oven for about 30-40 minutes. Yum!

      I buy feta buy the block at the deli counter. I slice it about 1/4 inch thick ,bread it ( like i would a cutlet,beat an egg in one bowl, and put panko bread crumbs in another. dip in egg then in BC) place in hot oil and fry till golden brown. You can use the fried feta to top mixed greens or spinach salads, add to pastas, omlets, or even just eat it by itself or in a nice crunchy loaf of french bread. so good

      I love buying the ready made pie dough (like pilsbury) and using a small biscuit cutter to cut out circles. I place them in a mini cupcake tin(to form a little pie cup) I make a mixture of feta, egg, and green onion. I place 1 sundried tomato in the bottom of each dough cup then place the cheese mixture on top about half way up. Top w/ one calmata olive then bake at 350" till crust is golden brown. about 15 -20 mins soooo yummy

      When I lived in Germany, I used to get baked feta and tomatoes from a takeout place there. After moving back, I decided to recreate it. I combine equal amounts of feta and diced, fresh tomato, add lots of chopped garlic, some dried oregano and drizzle with some olive oil. Then bake in a hot oven until hot. Serve with crusty bread or pita for dipping. Delish.

      Barb’s Spinach Chicken with Feta

      6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
      1 (10 ounce) package fresh spinach
      2 cloves garlic, chopped
      1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
      1/4 cup mayonnaise
      In medium bowl, mix spinach, garlic, feta cheese and mayonnaise until blended. Set aside.
      Spray a 9 x 13 glass baking dish with nonstick cooking spray, arrange chicken breasts in pan. Spoon spinach mixture over top on chicken breasts, add salt and pepper if desired. Cover with foil. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink. Take foil off the last 15 minutes of baking.
