Base
- 200g Feta cheese
- 100g Greek yogurt
Toppings
- 1/2 cup Pomegranate seeds
- 1/3 cup Pistachios, shelled and roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- Prepare the base: Crumble the feta cheese and place it in a mixing bowl. Add the Greek yogurt to the bowl for creaminess.
- Whip until smooth: Using a hand mixer or food processor, whip the feta and Greek yogurt together until the mixture is smooth, fluffy, and spreadable.
- Assemble the dish: Transfer the whipped feta mixture to a serving dish, smoothing it out evenly on the surface.
- Add toppings: Generously sprinkle the pomegranate seeds and chopped pistachios evenly over the whipped feta spread to add color, texture, and flavor.
- Drizzle with olive oil: Finish by drizzling the olive oil evenly over the top to enhance richness and add a silky finish.
Notes
- Use full-fat feta and Greek yogurt for the creamiest texture.
- For extra flavor, you can lightly toast the pistachios before chopping.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature with warm pita bread or fresh veggies.
- This spread can be made a few hours in advance and stored covered in the refrigerator.
