I made this recipe for myself first. It was absolutely terrific. The olive oil and feta together are terrific, but the cilantro gave it a wonderful boost in flavor. I used the mine on salads. The second time I made this, I added a little more New Mexico chile flakes just to kick it up a tad. This makes a wonderful gift to give to family. They all thank you for posting a great recipe that we all enjoyed. Thanks! -
I used several different kinds of olives including kalamata, green and green stuffed with anchovies. The cilantro and the chili peppers really spice things up. I made these as part of a Moroccan Dinner that I was hosting, but I will be making them over and over again. Thanks Sue L.
