Ingredients

  • 8 oz feta cheese block
  • 1 clove garlic fresh
  • ⅓ cup roasted red pepper chopped
  • 2 TBSP extra virgin olive oil plus extra for drizzling
  • 1 TBSP lemon juice fresh
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
OPTIONAL GARNISH
  • 1-2 TBSP roasted red pepper chopped
  • 1-2 TBSP feta cheese crumbled
  • ⅛ tsp sweet paprika or spicy cayenne pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Break up an 8 oz block of feta into the bowl of a food processor.
  2. Peel and mince one clove of garlic. Chop ⅓ cup roasted red pepper.
  3. Add garlic, roasted red pepper, 2 TBSP olive oil, and 1 TBSP fresh-squeezed lemon juice.
  4. Blend/process until dip is uniformly orange with no large chunks of feta remaining. For a thinner dip an extra drizzle of olive oil may be added, to taste.
  5. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Mix well. I typically add a pinch of each.
  6. Transfer to a serving bowl, drizzle with additional olive oil (optional) and top dip with optional garnish, if desired.
  7. Serve with all your favorite dippers! Here are some delicious options to get you started, simply choose your favorites: cucumber, celery, carrots, bell pepper or sweet mini peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, pita bread, pita chips, fresh sliced baguette, and crackers. Enjoy!
  8. Leftover dip can be stored in an airtight container for 1-3 days. It will firm up a little in the fridge and then soften back up when closer to room temperature.
