Ingredients
  

8 oz feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Sea salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

1 large cucumber, thinly sliced into rounds

4 slices of crusty bread (recommend sourdough or ciabatta)

Fresh dill sprigs, for garnish

Red pepper flakes, for a spicy kick (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Whipped Feta: In a food processor, combine the crumbled feta cheese, softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Stop to scrape down the sides as needed for an even consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

    Toast the Bread: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the slices of bread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over each slice for flavor, then transfer to the oven. Toast for 10-12 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and crisp to your liking.

      Slice the Cucumber: While the bread is toasting, take the cucumber and slice it thinly into rounds or half-moons. Lightly sprinkle the slices with a pinch of sea salt to elevate their natural flavor, then set aside.

        Assemble the Toasts: Once the bread is toasted to perfection, generously spread a smooth layer of the whipped feta mixture over each slice. Top each piece with the cucumber slices, arranging them neatly for aesthetic appeal.

          Garnish: To elevate your toasts, scatter fresh dill sprigs over the top. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of red pepper flakes on each toast for an added kick of heat.

            Serve: Serve the whipped feta and cucumber toasts immediately, perfect as a light appetizer or a delightful snack, and pair with a refreshing beverage for a complete experience!
