Notes
Use authentic block feta packed in brine for the creamiest whipped feta.
Prepare the whipped feta a day ahead and refrigerate until ready to assemble.
Homemade pita chips can be stored in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
Customize the board with fresh fruit, nuts, or additional Mediterranean favorites.
Serve immediately after assembling for the freshest presentation.
