This recipe comes from Papagus Greek Taverna in Chicago's River North neighborhood. If you like feta cheese, this is very easy and yummy.

I can't wait to try it!! It sounds wonderful =)
Let me know how you like it! I have tried to spread feta cheese on crackers before but it isn't easy, and this is very spreadable and seasoned nicely.
That looks so good! Will have to try that sometime!
