Herb Feta Spread

Herb Feta Spread is another delightful recipe from Sallie and will soon become one of your favorites. Sallie, a former co-worker, always had parties that people looked forward to because you never knew what she might put together. This spread is from one of those parties and I am sure will enhance your next affair as well. Simple to make, but always a party favorite.

It's amazing all these recipes that basil enhances! And this one you can make in advance of that big party but not too far in advance as you risk it spoiling. Give it a try and tell us about how it was received by your guest at the comment box at the bottom of the page!
