    It's a FETA F.I.E.S.T.A!! That's how I would describe this tangy and ABSOLUTELY delicious whipped feta and olive dip.

    Its so easy to make and its feels SO upscale and fancy. Its just feta, cream cheese, olives, lemon juice, and some herbs blitzed together in a food processor and BAM! You have an amazing snack or appetizer that will impress absolutely everybody.

    About Pate

    Hi! I'm Pate, the blogger, recipe developer, and photographer behind The G&M Kitchen!

    Raised in the heart of Kentucky, I come from a long line of passionate cooks and bakers. The kitchen was always the heart of our home, where we transformed vegetables into delightful dishes and crafted pies and cakes that emerged from the oven. This tradition of coming together through food and cooking inspired the name of my blog, The G&M Kitchen – 'G' for my father's family, the Giltners, and 'M' for my mother's family, the Millers.

    I also believe if a recipe is missing something, it's probably bourbon.
