Olive puffs with tomato and feta crumbs

Sfoglie alle olive are like the best of a Greek summer picnic, all packed into a light and crispy snack you can eat with your hands. Seriously, these are loved for how much they remind you of a classic Greek salad, but with a tender pastry twist. And the top layer? Fresh, chopped pomodoro—those little cherry tomatoes bring a juicy pop with every bite. You get olive nere sliced into rings, plus bits of sharp feta cheese crumbled right on top. Adding thin slices of cipolla rossa gives the whole thing just enough kick to keep it interesting, while basil on top ties everything together with that real Mediterranean taste.

These often show up at parties as a super easy antipasto vegetariano or just as a simple finger food. Pretty much when you want something that looks a bit fancy but is quick to make. And look, the best part is how each piece stays so moist and golden from the puff pastry, while the veggies keep things bright and fresh. Folks in Greece love this combo when it gets hot out, as you still get something filling without feeling weighed down. For sure, these sfoglie alle olive work great for a light lunch or as a starter for a bigger meal, especially if you’re craving that tangy taste from the feta mixed with sweet tomatoes and olives. As a summer recipe, this is one of those snacks that disappears fast—kids and adults both grab them off the plate. They’re simple but never boring, and you can always taste a little bit of the Mediterranean coast in every bite. Plus, if you’re all about foods that are easy to share, fun to eat, and loaded with flavor, this is a snack that totally gets the job done. Perfect for a sunny day, these little bites bring a touch of Greece right to your table, making any meal feel like a mini-vacation.
