Total time: 
Serves: 4-6 servings
 
Ingredients
  • 8 ounces feta cheese, at room temperature
  • 3 ounces whipped cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 1½ cups chopped tomatoes
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp Greek seasoning
  • 2-3 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • Baguette slices, spread lightly with olive oil and toasted until golden
Instructions
  1. Crumble the feta into large chunks and place in a food processor. Pulse a few times until feta is in small crumbs. Add the cream cheese. Puree for 4-5 minutes, scraping the sides down occasionally, until the feta is uniformly smooth and creamy.
  2. Combine the tomatoes, onions, olive oil, and Greek seasoning in a bowl. Drizzle in the balsamic vinegar 1 tsp at a time, to taste. Sprinkle with salt and pepper lightly, if desired.
  3. Spread each toasted baguette slice with about 1-2 tablespoons of whipped feta. Top with a spoonful of tomato mixture. Garnish with extra sliced green onions if desired.
Notes
If you can, purchase Feta cheese that is available in a single large chunk. It will be moister and creamier than feta that has been pre-crumbled.
I used grape tomatoes because I like their sweet flavor the best. However, any tomatoes that are garden fresh, or extra sweet should taste great in this recipe.
If your Greek seasoning blend has salt in it, you may not need to add extra salt to the tomatoes.
