Greek Feta Dip

This Greek Feta Dip is a creamy and tangy delight that brings the flavors of the Mediterranean right to your table. With its rich feta cheese and smooth yogurt base, it offers a perfect balance of flavors that is both satisfying and refreshing. Ideal as an appetizer or a snack, this dip pairs wonderfully with fresh vegetables, pita chips, or as a topping for grilled meats and salads.

For a Serving Size of Two:

Ingredients:

  • 100 grams crumbled feta cheese
  • 50 grams Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small minced garlic clove
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Fresh parsley or dill for garnish

Procedure:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese, Greek yogurt, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, black pepper, and dried oregano.
  • Use a fork or a hand mixer to blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. You can adjust the consistency by adding a little more yogurt or olive oil if desired.
  • Taste the dip and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You can add more lemon juice for tanginess or more pepper to enhance the flavor.
  • Transfer the Greek feta dip to a serving bowl. Drizzle with a bit of olive oil and garnish with fresh parsley or dill if using. Serve with fresh vegetable sticks, whole-grain pita, or as a spread on sandwiches.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • Feta cheese is a good source of calcium and protein, contributing to strong bones and muscle health. Greek yogurt adds probiotics, which support gut health, and is lower in fat compared to traditional sour cream.
  • The dip’s olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fats, promoting heart health and anti-inflammatory properties.
  • Garlic offers potential immune-boosting benefits and may have antimicrobial effects. This dip is not only delicious but also provides a nutritious option that enhances your overall dietary intake with healthy fats, protein, and essential vitamins.
