Recipe Reviews
Delightful mix of tangy feta with sweet roasted strawberries and a dash of basil. And so pretty!
I tried to submit a photo but the site won’t accept it. I didn’t have a big enough appealing bow so I made individual crackers with cheese, strawberry, and a basil, with basil sprigs for garnish.
Perfect summer appetizer! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
