This makes for the ideal sharing platter when your pals or family are over. We usually take the ingredients and make a carpet picnic but we’ve been more civilised here and used the dining table! You’re welcome.
Moreish Mediterranean Platter
Serves 1
Ingredients
- 100g freshly cooked ready to eat prawns
- 1 tbsp olive oil for prawn marinade, more to drizzle for dressing
- 1 tsp chopped parsley
- 50g feta cheese, cut into cubes
- 1 tsp oregano
- Handful of mixed leaves
- 3 – 4 cherry tomatoes
- Apple cider vinaigrette
- 1/4 lime
- Bowl of home marinated olives (check out my husband’s olive marinade recipe here)
- Sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
Method
Around 20 minutes before dining, prepare and marinate your prawns. Place the olive oil and parsley into a bowl and mix. Add the prawns and toss to coat them evenly. Cover and leave for 20 minutes.
Place feta onto plate and drizzle in olive oil and sprinkle oregano. Add mixed leaves and tomatoes and drizzle olive oil and apple cider vinaigrette.
Add the prawns to the plate and serve with marinated olives in a separate bowl. Serve with a wedge of lime for the prawns!
Season with salt and pepper. Eat.

Congratulations on being a finalist, you totally deserve it. Were you on junior masterchef? That is so awesome!!
Hhaa I came 4th in the North in the heats before TV and they only needed 3 little chefs, I really wasn’t ready for my close up then so was a little relieved, my Dad was a bit disappointed though #stagedad 😉 x
This looks delicious! I absolutely adore Greek food. I’d love to give this one a go – I don’t think it would look quite so well presented as yours though! Excited about linking up to #TastyTuesdays for the first time this week 🙂 x
Thanks so much Jenny, yay, so glad to have you join, thank you and P.S If they weren’t going on the site, this wouldn’t look as good, promise!
Lovely looking recipe as always – you totally deserve to be in the finals. Good luck!
Oh that’s so kind, thanks so much Mandy x

Absolutely LOVE platters like this Vicki, especially as I thrive on the lower-carb diet. Thanks for sharing! x
Thanks my low carb sister, really filling and pretty too! Yay x
This looks so easy and delicious. I love all this type of food and the weather suits it right now.
Thanks darling, so easy to just throw together isn’t it x
Yay congratulations to you!!!! Good luck with the MADS! And how cool that you went on junior masterchef!! This platter looks super dooper scrummy…in fact it has made my tummy rumble so I am off to look in the fridge!!!
Haha I didn’t make it on TV (came 4th and they only needed 3, much to my Dad’s disappointment), let’s hope I can make it up to him if I bring home a MAD! So glad you like the platter! x
This looks amazing. We love eating like this at the weekend but I never manage to style my plates quite like you do! It looks fab!
Thanks for hosting #tastytuesday this is my first time posting, will def be back!
Haha we like styling it up for shoots but day to day, not usually this pretty x

Well, that’s the starter dish sorted for my dinner party this wednesday! Yum! And, oh how I miss the Olive Tree food, so delicious. I may try to recreate another couple of dishes for my dinner party in fact. Looking forward to sharing some good food again sweet friend! xxx
Yay I’m so pleased, your dinner party will be wonderful darling, you’ll have to come visit us in Leeds again soon x
I love sharing platters. Yours looks yummy. You’ve got my vote, hun! xx
This looks sooo good! We’ve just got back from Spain so I am already missing all the delicious fresh food there. Definitely making this at the weekend!
Thanks darling, the post-holiday blues are a killer aren’t they x
Oh yes! At least we’ve got some good weather to make the transition a little easier!
I know, pleased too, transitioning after Jamaica would have been much tougher otherwise x
This sort of dish is one of my absolute favs, I love grown up picnic food! Can just imagine tucking into this in the garden on a warm evening with a glass of something bubbly. And congrats on this nomination-can’t say I’m surprised and you definitely have my vote. Well done my lovely xx
Oh thanks so much sweetie, that means a lot, oh yes, perfect garden food with chilled white or some bubbles, roll on balmy nights x
