Transfer the pecans to a bowl or measuring cup straight from the stove. Mix nuts and fig preserves. Put the feta blocks in a small oven-safe dish after unpacking.

I propose a modest casserole. Dip the feta blocks in avocado oil and add dried oregano and black pepper.

Cook feta at 400 for 20–25 minutes until golden brown, then remove from oven. Lower the oven to 350°F. Spoon the feta into the dip bowl and swirl until creamy.
