Tirokafeteri

Tirokafeteri is a warm, Feta cheese dip.  I first had this in a Greek restaurant, but my husband grew up with this and it's simple to prepare so if you want to give it a go, here's what you will need...

Tirokafeteri
500 grams (or two 8-oz. blocks) Feta cheese
2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 to 2 tsp. hot sauce
juice of 1 lemon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, and hot sauce in a bowl.  Crumble feta and stir into mixture to coat.  Bake cheese mixture in a small size casserole at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes or until warm.  Serve with warm, torn pieces of pita bread.
