Feta Tart
Finger food meets dinner. If you are having a few drinkies, this will get you through to dinner, no worries. It could actually also BE dinner.
This recipe first appeared in Dinner Spinner, that very first project I created after leaving Thermomix in Australia way back when. It then also appears in The Convenient Vegetarian as it is just delicious. Give it a try. Don't skip the vodka, it helps with the crispiness. You will love it! Serve with or without salad, or just as finger food with drinks. YUM!
