Homemade pita and spicy honey whipped feta dip!
This is a great app to serve alongside any Mediterranean-inspired dish, and you can’t beat pita fresh out of the oven!
🔆Dip Recipe 🔆
2 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2-1 tsp red pepper flakes
2 tbsp honey
1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
6 oz. feta cheese
3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
In a small saucepan, add the olive oil, minced garlic, and 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (add 1 full tsp if you’d like it extra spicy) over low heat. Once the oil starts to simmer, cook the garlic and pepper flakes for about 1 min, or until the garlic turns light golden brown. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the honey, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined, then taste, adding more salt/pepper if needed.
In a blender or food processor, add the feta, Greek yogurt, and 2 tbsp of the spicy honey mixture. Blend until creamy and smooth, then scoop into a serving bowl and drizzle with the remaining honey mixture. Serve alongside pita wedges or sliced veggies!
This is also amazing as a spread for sandwiches!
