I loved experimenting with this appetizer! I was craving something very garlicky and wanted a whipped spread of some sort! After I looked on Pinterest for a bit I decided I wanted to try mixing whipped feta with roasted garlic and couldn’t see any out there!  It turned out just like i’d imagined!

I had lots of fresh extra virgin olive oil and it was the perfect addition to this spread!
