This recipe is technically dairy free, as feta used is made by goats or sheep. The combination of the ingredients makes it more like an appertif, but for one. As it is high in cholesterol, it should be an occasional treat.

Ingredients

  • 1 block sheep's milk feta
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 2 medium tomatoes
  • 10-12 medium prawns
  • Handful of black olives

Method

  1. De-shell prawns, leaving the tail
  2. Chop and dice cheese, avocado and tomato
  3. Add all ingredients to a large serving bowl, garnish with basil

This is a great recipe to serve when entertaining, or just as an indulgent snack for you and your friends.
