Ingredients:

• 8 oz. feta cheese
• 3/4 c. Greek plain yogurt
• 1 medium garlic clove, minced
• 2 TBSP olive oil, divided
• Salt, to taste
• Black pepper, to taste
• 6 TBSP pistachio, crushed
• Watermelon, chopped into 1-1 1/2 inch large bites

Directions:

1. Whipped Feta: In a food processor add feta, yogurt, garlic, 1 TBSP olive oil, and a pinch of salt. Blitz until smooth, taste and adjust seasoning, then transfer to a bowl, and set aside.
2. Watermelon Bites: Cut 1-1 1/2 inch thick slices of watermelon, and then cut into squares or use a cookie cutter to cut a circle or shape.
