If you could have only one thing to eat for the rest of your life, what would it be? Now think long and hard…the. rest. of. your. life. That’s a long time, my dear.
Did you come up with an answer?
I did! Feta Cheese!
There’s not a day that goes by without me having a taste of my beloved cheese. For reals!
Have you seen how many recipes I have that involve Feta? Let’s see… There’s the Pierogies with Spicy Feta Filling. Then we have Sweet Potato Hash with Onions and Feta. Then there’s the most popular item on this blog, Oven-Baked Feta Cheese Dip. There’s a whole lotta feta going on up in herrrrr!
Thus, it was no surprise to me that for this month’s Secret Recipe Club, I chose something that involved feta – Avocado Feta Salsa. Take your time to process that. Avocado + Feta. Swoooooooon…
The recipe for this amazing salsa comes from the blog, Art From My Table.
I spent a good amount of time on that blog because the author, Chellie, has a lot of really, really good recipes, and I could not make a decision on what I wanted to make. But, all that contemplating stopped when I saw the Avocado Feta Salsa. I had to have it. Stat. Like, I made it as soon as I read it. Then I had to make it again so that I could photograph it and share it with you.
If you are like me, and you keep feta next to your bed, and avocados on your night stand, then you can make this right now. Go! Make it! Don’t share it. Just grab a spoon, if you want, and load it into your mouth. Go ahead. There’s no mcjudgies around here. We like to eat like cavemen. It’s all good.
But, if you really want to share this with your peeps, you might want to give them some chips to go with it. OH! You can also serve this on top of some crunchy bread!! Love that!
Go make it!
ENJOY!

Just made this for a potluck birthday party party and now I have to bring something else because it was so good my mother and I ate most of it 😀
Katerina Petrovska says
LOL! That is awesome!! 🙂 I am SO glad you enjoyed it!!
Lynette N says
I ran out and got more feta and whipped more up for the party and people devoured it. very big hit, thanks so much. I think it’s my new favorite recipe. I have a hard time entertaining with food since going vegetarian so this was very helpful to my ego 😀
Sargento Cheese says
This salad sounds delicious! The fresh taste and fun vegetables are sure to make any mouth happy! For a different taste, we recommend the Sargento Blue Cheese! Perfect for salads, this crumbled cheese is irresistable!
Katerina Petrovska says
Thank you! 🙂
I do love your Blue Cheese… I always keep some in the fridge.
Sargento says
That’ s great to hear! Ever thought of using Blue Cheese in a cheese cake? This one is one of our favorites. http://www.sargento.com/recipes/178/blue-cheesecake-tart/
Alise says
This looks delicious! I work for a goat cheese company and we would love to feature your recipe/blog if you’d allow? We’re in the process of creating a new/more attractive website – your pictures and recipe would work perfectly. We’d give you credit, of course.
Let me know what you think!
Ramona says
Looks fresh and full of flavor.

I love that you have a nice balance in your blog – I just saw great fried chicken, delicious sweet breakfast, and now healthy salsa! 😉 This looks really good!
Shea @ Dixie Chik Cooks says
You are killing me! Wish you and I could spend a day in the kitchen together, girl. We would have so much fun 🙂
Katerina Petrovska says
Shea, that would be one of the best days, ever!! Let’s hope that it happens one day! 🙂
Jeanette says
I love the sound of this – like Greek salad in dip form!
Veronica says
Omgosh, this is to die for. A feast for the eyes as well as the mouth!
Terra says
Pizza, I could eat pizza everyday! The beauty of pizza is it is so versatile, and a perfect balanced meat! I do love feta too, it is delish! This salsa sounds awesome, I want to just dive into that bowl! Hugs, Terra
Karen says
This salsa looks amazing. I think it would be good with goat cheese too!
feast on the cheap says
I always love your photos. And this looks so fresh and phenom!
Rhonda says
Just one thing…I’m close to you but couldn’t be so specific, it would have to be cheese in general.
This has so many ingredients that I adore, forget the ‘dip’ part, that’s a salad to me, yeah baby!
Valerie says
My cheese love is goat cheese (which I think is a form of feta?). Anyway, I’m right there with you – spoon in hand, standing over a bowl of this salsa! Who needs the chips? 😀
Helene says
It never crossed my mind to mix avocados and feta. Definitively a new salad to try in the kitchen. Have a great day!
Stacy | Wicked Good Kitchen says
Mmmm! Love these fresh summery salads with tomatoes, onion and feta with fresh chopped herbs and a vinegar and oil vinaigrette…just never thought of adding avocado. Olives, yes. Avocado? Duh! Thanks, Kate! xo
veronica gantley says
Awesome recipe that I know my family will love. So glad you shared
Tandy says
and my one ingredient would be avocado, so this recipe works for both of us 🙂

Your pictures are fantastic! I love the bright colors of all the veggies and of course looove feta! This sounds delicious!

Gorgeous! I think I could have goat cheese for the rest of my life. Or this salsa! I could snack on these ALL DAY!
kateiscooking says
MMMMMM, Kate that looks fantastic! I’m with you on the feta cheese. There’s always at least one container of it in my fridge – and usually two! Can’t begin to count the fantastic recipes we’ve done with feta. Now, I’ll have to check your blog for more.
The Mom Chef ~ Taking on Magazines One Recipe at a Time says
I’d have to vote for moussaka as my favorite food. I can choose a totally made dish right? Not just an ingredient?
I’ve come only lately to feta love, but yeah, I do love it. And yeah, I love it with avocado. They’re a match made in heaven. The salsa was a perfect pick for the SRC. It looks amazing.
kirsten@FarmFreshFeasts says
Kate,
You’re killin’ me! This looks so delicious–and I made Two Peas & Pod’s avocado feta dip the other day so I just know how delicious avocado and feta are together.
But I can’t get a decent tomato here for months!
Wah wah wah.
I suppose I’ll live. Thanks!
Erin @ Making Memories says
This looks amazing! I absolutely love dips like this. And anything with Feta and I’m lovin’ it!
Jen @JuanitasCocina says
Gorgeous! And now I’m going on a feta hunt around your site. 😀
