We substituted roasted red peppers for the olives and added chicken. It would be great for parties since it's so easy and delicious.

Delicious! I added some green onions into the mix for personal preference and I'm glad I did because I made a couple of them without them and the taste was slightly overpowering (Still yummy though.) I plan on experimenting to make it better.

Easy & tasty! I added a healthy pinch of basil, a handful of artichokes and some sundried tomatoes & loved it! (Made just for me as a snack.) This is delicious!

I love feta and I love cream cheese and black olives but I did not like the mixture at all. Way too tangy for me.

This is fabulous. I regularly eat these as snacks and my guy loved when I made it for him. I increase the feta and omit olives however. I cut them w/kitchen shears, much easier.

On the bland side, but they were good.

I absolutely love this recipe. I added a little "shredded" chicken breast which blended really well with the cheeses.

This recipe was very tasty and easy! I used flavored low carb tortillas (sun-dried tomato and spinach) to add a little more flavor and color.

I tried it for an office party and it was a huge success. I have used it since then and made modifications depending on the spirit of the event. It's so simple and comes across like you spent a lot of time on it.
