Ingredients
- 8 ounces Feta cheese I prefer the block Feta but crumbled will also work
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- 6 tablespoons mayonnaise good quality such as Hellman's or Duke's
- finely grated zest from 1 lemon about 1 teaspoon
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 medium clove garlic
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- fresh dill for garnish
- freshly ground black pepper for garnish
- extra virgin olive oil for garnish
Instructions
- Combine Feta, yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon zest, lemon juice and garlic in the bowl of a food processor or blender and process for 3-4 minutes or until nice and smooth. Add the olive oil and process until combined.
- Transfer dip to a serving bowl and smooth out the top. Use a small spoon to create a swirl on the surface. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle fresh dill and freshly ground black pepper. Serve with crudités and/or pita chips.
- This dip can be easily made several days in advance. Refrigerate in a storage container and bring to room temperature before serving. Garnish with a drizzle of good quality olive oil, finely chopped fresh herbs and freshly ground black pepper just before serving.
