Hello, how is your weekend going so far? I am just popping in really quick to share a very easy and delicious appetizer with you. These basil whipped feta in crunchy mini phyllo dough shells topped with cherry tomatoes or roasted mini peppers are the perfect little bites.
I debated a lot if I want to share this recipe, because I wasn’t in love with the photos, I took them so quick since we were ready to gobble down these basil whipped feta tartlets. At the end I decided to narrow it down to a few photos that I kind of like and share the recipe with all of you, since it so easy to put together and it tastes amazing, crunchy, salty, sweet and fabulous.
