Yum! As you all know, I’m a sucker for appetizers or little snacks. Today I had the opportunity to team up with Pearls Olives to tell you about their new single serve packaging! (And about an awesome sweepstakes going on right now!)

I really wanted to feature the Kalamata Pitted Greek Olives variety to go with this Greek snacking tray but they also come in Black Ripe Pitted Olives, Pimento-Stuffed Spanish Green Olives and Sliced California Black Ripe Olives; perfect for topping!

Along with the olives, my Greek snacking tray consists of cubed feta cheese drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, pita triangles and creamy dill cucumber salad! The cucumber salad is light and refreshing, and pairs perfectly with these other strong flavors.

Do NOT skip this straining step. If you do you will have a big, watery, bland cucumber soup lol.

Now that your cucumbers are ready, get out the other ingredients! I set this up as if it were more of a party platter. Don’t forget that drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the feta, yum! I just took a block of feta and cut it into equal cubes.

After this shoot I actually threw everything in a bowl and ate it as a huge salad with pita points on the side, woah!
