Here are all my Amazing Recipes with Feta Cheese for everyone who enjoys the pungent flavor of Feta! And if you’re a regular reader of my blog you’ve probably noticed how much I love this creamy, tangy cheese from Greece!
In fact, my blog already has a round-up of Salads with Feta Cheese, so I’m not repeating the salads here. And I hope I have enough recipes using Feta to help you to get your Feta Cheese fix on a regular basis.
What is Feta Cheese?
If you’re not familiar with Feta, Wikipedia has a good description of this type of Greek cheese. It’s an essential ingredient in Greek Salad, one of my all-time favorite salads.
What’s my favorite brand of Feta Cheese?
Feta is a product I’ve loved for so long that I first made it one of my Kalyn’s Kitchen Picks many years ago. My current favorite brand of Feta is the Kirkland Organic Feta from Costco, and I even wrote a post about Why I Love Kirkland Organic Feta! But truly I don’t think I’ve had a brand of Feta that I didn’t like, and it’s something I’d never get tired of!
What Recipes with Feta Cheese are featured here?
This collection has nearly 50 different options for dinners, lunches, appetizers, side dishes, and breakfast recipes with Feta Cheese, and every one of these is a recipe I’ve loved and made over and over. I hope you enjoy trying some of the recipes!
Will Feta Cheese Keep in the Fridge?
I personally don’t like to buy the pre-crumbled Feta, because it doesn’t keep well in the fridge. I have a definite preference for sheep’s milk Feta, and even though Kirkland Organic Feta is my favorite, every brand of block Feta Cheese I’ve had from Costco has been good. Admittedly, I might not be able to store a big block of Feta that if I didn’t have the FoodSaver Vacuum Sealer (affiliate link), which vacuum packs the cheese. And Feta Cheese stays good in my fridge for months with that method.
Is Feta Cheese Low in Carbs?
Most Feta Cheese has less than one carb per serving, which certainly makes me love it even more! Check your package, some brands may differ, but I’m sure every brand of Feta is going to be very low in carbs.

Excellent recipes!!!! Thank you for sharing them!
Glad you like it!
I believe I am already subscribed to your page.
Well, what fun for me to read your Geek feta recipes, because I grew up in a Greek home. I read your info I just have never commented.
Here’s a little trivia: As far as I knew, no one in USA or at least in my state of Maine ate Feta except probably the Greeks. In the 40’s and 50’s there was of course no Feta in any store, we ordered our Feta from Greece. It was delivered to us once a month in a wonderful, sealed, wooden bucket, the cheese always surrounded by the brine; it kept for a long time.
The older women in the community all have their own ways of preserving the smaller amount of cheese that they buy in the store. One idea is to put the cheese in a nice container-with a good lid–and cover it with milk., works well.
I never buy the pre-crumbled cheese, little small squares of of Feta looks so much better in salads. the pre-crumbled cheese, including parmesan often has an additive to keep it from sticking together–cellulose I think. I am looking forward to trying these recipes. Penelope
Hi Penelope,
How fun hearing from your and learning all that trivia about Feta. I don’t think I ever tried it myself until I was in college, and in those days I don’t think you could buy it in the store here either, except maybe in a specialty cheese market.
I am NOT a fan of the crumbled Feta cheese at all, so I was so happy when Costco started carrying the blocks. I have to go to the bigger Costco in Salt Lake City to get it, but worth the trip! Hope you enjoy the recipes!
At Publix, they have Vigo feta cheese which is made with sheep's milk. It's the only feta I will buy around here. I really don't care for the cow's milk type or with added ingredients to keep it crumbly. Just another option for those that can't get some of these other brands.
I don't have Publix but I'll have to look for that one!
This is my favorite feta too. I also buy at costco but recently was at a "value store" and they had it…the label didn't say "presidente" anywhere like it does at costco, but i took a chance and found it to taste just the same (phew)…so i'm thinking if it says Valbreso it's probably a-ok!!
Melanie, we don't have Trader Joe's in Utah.
The newer FoodSavers are wonderful for keeping foods like this. You use the setting for "moist" foods (which prevents the machine from sucking in the liquid somehow.) I seal packages of feta all the time with it. I drain off some of the brine, but there is enough left in the package to keep it moist.
I am not sure how widespread Trader Joe's is, but they have the most delicious feta I've ever tasted– it's sheepsmilk, imported from Greece, and is kept in a tub of brine which keeps it wonderfully moist, the problem I have with most other fetas. Does your foodsaver gadget help keep it from drying out?
Angie my Costco has Dodoni Feta too, but I like this one better.
My sister lives in Greece, she sent me this link to your blog, i love Feta, she came to visit me over the holiday's and brought me some olive oil ad DODONI feta! best feta ever, she said it was actually the cheaper brand over in Athens but nothing like anything here, i have never tried sheeps milk feta but i have 4 costco in my area, i will be down at one tomorrow morning to see if I can get it here in Frisco Texas, wish me luck, ill keep you posted, plan on making salad and mushrooms for lunch if i find it yum…xoxox
This is our favorite feta too – domestic can't hold a candle to this one. I am so excited to hear I can buy it at Cosco as I have been paying twice the cost there at a little Middle East grocer not too far from my house.
Thanks.
Sandy
Thanks for the mention Kalyn. I love Feta too. At this time of the year I’m sprinkling it on brown mushrooms a drizzle of oil and a few herbs and baking for 20 minutes.kxscb
We always have feta ’round the house for my mouse of a wife!
I love feta cheese too, it adds an extra kick to almost any savory dish. I’ve never tried this brand though, I’ll definitely keep an eye out for it!

Oh Paz, that’s just plain sad. Costco is amazing, if you can get past the obvious consumerism culture that it sprang out of. I buy so many food products there. (Ok, I guess that’s something people have already noticed.)
I love feta. There’s no Costco near me, unfortunately. Never been there before. 🙁

Mooncrazy, I think their Feta is fantastic. I used to buy a very expensive brand from an Italian deli, but this is just as good if not better.
Lydia, it’s great. I’d be curious to know if it’s more expensive there. I think food is pretty cheap in Utah.
Christine, I always thought goat’s milk Feta was best too, until I tried this one.
Holler, no Costco in Scotland? I thought they were worldwide, but maybe not. I know some people are turned off by their large sizes of everything, but I love Costco!
I love Feta! That’s a good line up of recipes, I am going to work my way through all the veggie ones! You are lucky having Costco, I don’t think we have anything similar! The only thing I buy in bulk is my parmesan (my fridge is only little).
Wish we had Costco — have I mentioned that before? 🙂 I am usually a goat’s milk feta fan but I will keep an eye out for this one.
Kalyn, I’ll look for this at my Massachusetts Costco tomorrow — what a find!
I’ll need to try this because Presidente makes the most delish butter so I’m sure they’d do a great job with cheese.
