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.

Course: Appetizer

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

    Cup of Yum
  1. 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.
  2. 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.
