How much cheese? I don’t see it in recipe?
Hey Kelly, I appreciate you pointing that out! It totally slipped my mind to include the feta cheese in the ingredient list. For this recipe, you’ll want to incorporate about 1 ½ cups of crumbled feta cheese, but feel free to adjust the amount to suit your personal taste preferences. Thanks again for catching that oversight!
No problem and thank you!
