Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 8 ounces feta cheese, block drained and patted dry
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 0.75 cups plain Greek yogurt whole milk for extra creaminess
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic small, or to taste
- 1 teaspoons honey balances the tang
- 0.5 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes adjust to taste
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons kosher salt add to taste; feta is salty
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped plus more for garnish
- 1 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil for drizzling, optional
- 0.5 cups roasted red pepper, diced optional topping
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Crumble the feta into a food processor. Add the softened cream cheese and Greek yogurt.
- Add olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, honey, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and salt.
- Blend until very smooth and fluffy, scraping the bowl as needed to remove any feta bits.
- Pulse in the chopped dill, or fold it in by hand to keep green flecks distinct.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with more lemon, salt, or red pepper flakes as desired.
- Transfer to a shallow bowl, swirl the top, and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, diced roasted red pepper, and extra dill. Serve with pita chips and veggies.
Notes
For best texture, use block feta in brine. Make-ahead: cover and refrigerate up to 3 days; stir before serving. If the dip firms up in the fridge, mix in a splash of olive oil or yogurt to loosen.
