🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Whipped Feta

In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine feta, Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.

Blend until smooth, fluffy, and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. Taste and adjust seasoning.

Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate while preparing the flatbread and toppings.

Step 2: Toast the Flatbread

Brush both sides of the flatbreads lightly with olive oil and sprinkle evenly with garlic powder.

Toast in a skillet over medium heat or bake in a preheated oven at 190°C (375°F) for 5–7 minutes, until warm with lightly crisp edges.

Remove and let cool slightly before assembling.

Step 3: Assemble the Flatbreads

Spread a generous layer of whipped feta over each warm flatbread, reaching close to the edges.

Top evenly with cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and Kalamata olives. Sprinkle with extra feta if desired.

Finish with chopped fresh mint and dill for a burst of herbal freshness.
