Whipped Feta Dip
This sweet and tangy dip is perfect as an appetizer served with pita wedges or crudités, or spread on Greek Style sandwiches.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 3/4 - 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- one pinch ground thyme
- 1/8 teaspoon dried dill
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt add at the very end if needed, after tasting
- honey for drizzling on top
- 1-2 tablespoons fresh minced parsley
Instructions
- Place cream cheese, feta*, mayo, lemon zest, oregano, thyme, dill, and pepper in a food processor (a smaller processor bowl works best since it's not a huge quantity). Process until feta is smooth, scraping down the sides when needed. Add salt at this point, according to taste.
- Place dip in a shallow bowl and drizzle honey on top (about 1 tablespoon). Sprinkle with fresh parsley. Feel free to add more honey as dip is being eaten.
Notes
*feta amount is shown as a range since different brands will vary in flavor and intensity. Add to your preference.
