Ingredients

Scale

Cheese and Dairy

  • 6 ounces feta cheese
  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt

Liquids and Oils

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons water (as needed)
  • a squeeze of lemon juice

Flavorings

  • a clove of fresh garlic
  • a pinch of fresh or freeze-dried dill

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients including feta cheese, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, olive oil, water, garlic, dill, and lemon juice.
  2. Blend the Ingredients: Place the feta, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, olive oil, garlic, dill, and lemon juice in a small blender or food processor. Pulse the mixture until it becomes smooth and spreadable but still has some flecks of feta for texture. If the mixture is too thick, add water gradually to reach your desired consistency.
  3. Adjust and Serve: Taste the spread and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve immediately as a spread for sandwiches, wraps, salads, bowls, burgers, or as a delicious dip.

Notes

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a richer flavor and creamier texture.
  • The dill can be fresh or freeze-dried depending on availability; fresh dill adds a brighter flavor.
  • If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, you can add an extra clove or roast the garlic before adding for a milder taste.
  • This spread can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For a vegan alternative, consider substituting the cheeses and yogurt with plant-based options, although flavor will differ.
  • Add a pinch of black pepper or red pepper flakes for a little heat if desired.
