As a teenager, I lived with my grandma — and I’ll never forget the way her kitchen smelled or how her hands moved with so much confidence and love. She taught me how to make feta cheese from scratch, and every time I use it in a dish, I think of her. Feta has always been more than just an ingredient to me. It’s memories, comfort, and tradition all wrapped into one salty, creamy bite.
This Creamy Whipped Feta with Roasted Beets is my modern twist on something deeply personal. It’s smooth, tangy, and bold — just like the women who raised me. The roasted beets bring earthy sweetness, the Aleppo pepper adds a little heat (because you know I love a kick), and the garlic oil ties it all together with richness and depth.
Whether you're making this as an appetizer for guests or meal prepping for the week, I hope it brings a little love and nostalgia to your table too — just like it does for me.
