You won’t believe how easy it is to whip up this easy creamy lemon feta dip.
Just four ingredients: feta, lemons, garlic and oil serve as a base to make a variety of dressings, sauces or condiments.
All cooks need inspiration. This recipe comes from Sweet Paul magazine and is his most popular, most pinned recipe EVER.
Who knew that you could take salty, creamy lemony feta in so many directions?
If you don’t have a food processor, mixer or blender, just bring the feta to room temperature and mix by hand.
Change the spice, change the dip!
Replace pepper flakes with any one of these flavors:
- herbs like mint, thyme, rosemary (a tablespoon fresh or 1 teaspoon dried)
- chopped olives
- chopped dried figs or cherries (leave out garlic)
- chopped nuts (like walnuts)
- cracked black pepper or pepper blend
Viva variation!
Instead of feta, try another soft cheese like Cotija or cream cheese.
Add: lime zest/juice + olive or avocado oil + a pinch each of smoked paprika and cumin seeds.
Serve with chips and salsa for a dip that’s delicioso.
