Ingredients
  1. 8oz feta cheese, crumbled
  2. 1-2 jalapeño peppers
  3. 1 head of garlic
  4. 2 celery stalks, chopped fine
  5. 1-2 tablespoon chopped mediterranean olives
  6. 1 tablespoon olive oil
  7. pepper
  8. basil leaves (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  2. Rub the jalapeños with a little olive oil and wrap in foil. Slice the garlic head in half rub a little olive oil onto the cloves and wrap in foil. Roast the jalapeños and garlic for about 45 minutes or until tender. Once cooked let cool.
  3. Once the jalapeños are cool, peel the skin from the pepper and remove all the cloves from their skins. You should be able to smash the garlic into a paste.
  4. In a large bowl, place the feta, garlic paste, jalapeños, celery, olives and mix together
  5. Add in the olive oil and black pepper to taste. Mash together to form a spread. If it's too dry add a little more olive oil.
Notes
  1. If you like it a little on the less spicy side, use one jalapeño and remove the seeds.
