What is in Whipped Feta Dip with Sun Dried Tomato?

This spread is made with tons of tangy feta cheese, a little cream cheese, some greek yogurt, a couple cloves of garlic, olive oil and Amore Sun Dried Tomato Paste.

How do you make Whipped Feta Dip with Sun dried Tomato?

To make this creamy whipped feta dip,, you’ll need to have a hand mixer, a food processor, or something high-powered that can whip that feta cheese until it’s smooth and creamy. The Feta is whipped together with cream cheese, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil and sun dried tomato paste. The olive oil helps to lighten everything and make a fluffy dip. It takes several minutes to get a smooth dip, but it’s all worth it in the end! Scrape down the sides of the bowl a couple of times between pulses.

Once the Feta Cheese is whipped to a consistency you like, add a little salt and some crushed red pepper flakes to season, then add fresh dill. Feta is a pretty salty cheese, so you’ll want to be cautious adding salt.

To finish it off, place in a shallow serving bowl and top this Greek Feta Dip with some diced cucumbers and tomatoes for texture and crunch, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. I like to dice up a whole cucumber or two and stir it right into the dip for added texture as well. Make sure to have plenty of pita chips or plain crackers on hand for serving.
