Wonderful!!!! It was hard waiting for the 2 weeks but well worth it. Served this to guests who raved about it. I took your advice and served with toasted french baguette and chopped tomatoes. Great to have on hand! Thank you for sharing, Pink! Made for KK`s Greek Forum.

I have made something similar to this in the past and made this a few days ago but omitted the coriander seeds as I did not have any, just tasted the feta today and it is wonderful I look forward to it in the next couple of weeks when the flavor intensifys even more, thank you PD, this was made for KK's forum Veggie tag game

The two weeks have passed, JUST, and I have tried this delicious recipe out today with home-made oat bread for a delectable light lunch! I made it as posted and used a medley of peppers - white, black, pinks and green for a pretty as a picture dish. The flavours were infused throughout the mixture as well as the feta cheese - this is 10 star IMHO! Merci darlink! Karen/FT:-)
