Mediterranean Dip

This is a fresh, comforting dip that everyone always LOVES and it only takes a minute to throw together! It inspired by a recipe that was passed along to me at a work potluck years ago. I make my own Greek Vinegarette which is super delicious and easier than one would think to mix up! It makes a great appetizer for any gathering, especially in the summertime when you may have tomatoes or cucumbers to use up from your garden.

Ingredients

  • 16 oz. cream cheese
  • c. finely diced red onion
  • ½ c. finely diced cucumber (scrape out seeds before dicing)
  • ½ c. finely diced tomato (scrape out seeds before dicing)
  • 4 oz. Feta cheese
  • thin wheat crackers, for serving

Dressing

  • ¼ c. red wine vinegar
  • ½ c. avocado oil
  • 1 ½ tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp. sugar
  • 2 tsp. Greek seasoning (no salt)
  • 1 oz. Feta cheese
  • 1 tbsp. diced white onion
  • ¼ c. chopped cucumber
  • 1 garlic clove

Instructions

  • Add the dressing ingredients to a blender, giving it a few longer pulses, until thoroughly combined and emulsified.
  • Mix dressing and chopped vegetables in a bowl and if you have time, let the mixture marinate for a couple of hours.
  • Spread cream cheese in an even layer on a serving tray.
  • Top with vegetable mixture. Crumble Feta cheese on top.
  • Serve with thin wheat crackers.

Notes

  •  I highly recommend making the homemade dressing, but if you're in a pinch, ¾ c. store-bought Greek Vinegarette dressing works great!
