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

  1. Mix cheeses, yogurt and spices until blended smooth (either in a food processor or by hand).
  2. Pour mixture into dish and spread evenly.
  3. Top with fresh vegetables.
  4. 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

zesty
