    3. In a food processor, add the feta in pieces followed by the pesto sauce, honey, and greek yogurt, processing everything on high-speed until smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Add more salt, to taste if needed. NOTE: If it doesn’t become smooth enough, add another 2 Tbsps of liquid (water or veggie stock) and process again.

  3. ASSEMBLY:

    4. In a plate or low bowl, add the whipped feta, spreading it out evenly with a spoon. Top with roasted tomatoes, chopped walnuts, and garnish with fresh or dried herbs (like parsley or cilantro), followed by a drizzle of honey, if desired.
