Feta is a multi-talented cheese: You can crumble it into salads, bake it to make a creamy pasta sauce, and even stuff it into meatballs. My favorite way to enjoy the salty, briny cheese is to whip it into an ethereally creamy dip for crackers, crostini, and crudités. Feta dip comes together in minutes in a food processor and is guaranteed to be a hit at gatherings.
You only need five ingredients to make feta dip: feta, Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic.
The Greek yogurt and olive oil help break down the cheese, allowing it to blend into a creamy dip, while the lemon juice and garlic add balanced flavor. There’s no need to add salt to the dip, as feta is naturally salty.
The Best Greek Yogurt for Feta Dip
While any Greek yogurt can be used for this recipe, an extra-thick Greek yogurt, such as Fage, will give the dip the best texture and consistency. Use a whole-milk, full-fat variety, rather than reduced-fat or fat-free for optimal flavor and richness.
What to Serve with Feta Dip
Like most dips, there are endless accompaniment options. Pita chips, crackers, crostini, and a mix of crudités are natural pairings. If you happen to have any leftover feta dip, it makes a pretty fantastic impromptu pasta sauce, a sandwich or burger spread, or a dip for french fries.
