Happy Tuesday! I have been meaning to prepare some quick dips for entertaining around the holidays for a while now and for some reason it just gets pushed down on my list of things to do. That is, until now. I am about to share with you a super simple Greek dip that is always a huge hit at the parties and family functions.
This dip is so versatile and quick to make. Next time you are heading to a potluck or a gathering sign yourself up for an appetizer and try this recipe.
Ingredients
- 1 Block Cream Cheese
- 1/2 Cup Feta Cheese
- 1/4 Cup Plain Yogurt
- 2 Tbsp. Chopped Fresh Dill
- 1 Clove Garlic
- 1/2 Tsp. Pepper
- Chopped Green Onions
- Chopped Cucumber
- Diced Black Olives
- Diced Tomatoes
Method
- Mix cheeses, yogurt and spices until blended smooth (either in a food processor or by hand).
- Pour mixture into dish and spread evenly.
- Top with fresh vegetables.
- Enjoy!
I like to serve this dip with homemade toasted pita chips. Simply break up some pita bread and throw it on a cookie sheet and bake at 300 degrees turning once until crispy. This is a great dish… give it a try.
I hope everyone is having a great week thus far. I look forward to sharing another party appetizer tomorrow. Have a great day and good luck finishing your shopping. Don’t forget about Zesty’s present.
Take care

I have made this dip a few times now and everyone loves it! It is very easy to whip up when unexpected guests come over…thanks for sharing.
Tessa – that is so awesome that you use this dip as a goto dip for guests. It is super easy to make and always a crowd favorite at any event i take it to as well. Thanks for reading.
For a school project we are required to make some sort of Greek dish and explain its origin. I figured pita bread with some sort of dip would be simple and easiest to satisfy most of the students and I’m almost guarenteed it will be a big hit.I was just wondering if anyone knew any of the historical history or significance of this recipe and if it orginally was called something else? I also know there is another cucumber yogurt dip called Tzatziki and if anyone knew a quick recipe for that as well and what their opinion of it is that would help greatly. Thanks so much. -Julie
