Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings: 12

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces feta cheese crumbles
  • 2 ounces cream cheese softened to room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons greek yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1 small garlic clove*
  • 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
  • juice of 1 small lemon
  • 1 tablespoon diced cucumbers for garnish optional
  • 1 tablespoon diced tomatoes seeds removed for garnish, optional

Method
 

  1. Set aside 1 tablespoon of feta crumbles for garnish
  2. Place the remaining feta and all other ingredients except for the olive oil in a large food processor
  3. Pulse on high until well combined
  4. Scrape down the sides of the bowl then with the food processor on high, drizzle in the olive oil until the mixture becomes creamy and the feta crumbles have been combined
  5. Serve immediately topped with feta cheese crumbles, diced cucumbers & tomatoes, and fresh vegetables or pita chips.
  6. If you're serving later, refrigerate until ready. Before serving, allow the dip to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes prior to serving in order for it to soften and gain back a spreadable texture.
  7. Dip should keep for 3-5 days, chilled.

Notes

*If you only have a large clove, cut it in half. If you really like garlic, feel free to add 2 small cloves but remember, raw garlic can overpower other flavors and often adds a bit of spice.
