This spicy cheese spread is a meze must-try, according to Kostas Feidantsis and Dimitris Koparanis of Dr. Benefits. It's easy to make and is great served with bread, grilled vegetables, fried eggs or grilled meat. It will keep in the fridge for up to 7 days. Feel free to use more peppers, or spicier peppers, if you prefer.
