Feta Cream Cheese Dip

A quick and easy appetizer perfect for any occasion, including the holidays! This feta cream cheese dip takes about 10-minutes to whip up. It’s baked until bubbly hot and served with crisp veggies and crackers.

It couldn’t be easier. Plus it can be mixed ahead of time and baked later. If you love feta cheese, this is the dip for you!

Ingredients for Feta Cheese Dip

• Cream Cheese: you’ll need an 8-ounce block of cream cheese, softened at room temperature.
• Feta Cheese: If possible, get a block of feta cheese in brine and crumble it yourself. It’s moister, milkier, and way more flavorful. 
• Roasted Red Peppers: store-bought jarred sweet peppers, whether whole or cut into strips both work. You’ll want to dice them for this recipe.
• Sour Cream: Make sure it’s not fat-free sour cream. 
• Garlic: Fresh garlic is the way to go. I do not recommend garlic powder.
• Dill: I recommend fresh dill for this recipe. Dried dill just does not taste the same. 
• Red Wine Vinegar: It’s going to add some tangy kick to the dip. 
• Red Chili Flakes: It gives the dip little heat. Feel free to add more to taste. 

How to Make Feta Cheese Dip

• In a bowl, combine the cream cheese, feta cheese, roasted peppers, sour cream, garlic, dill, vinegar, and red chili flakes. Using a hand mixer beat the mixture until combined. You can also throw everything into a food-processor and pulse until combined.

• Spoon the mixture into a greased 1-1 1/2 quart baking dish. Bake at 400 F for 25-30 minutes.

How to Serve Feta Cheese Dip

This hot feta cheese dip makes a great appetizer to pair with fresh crisp veggies, such as:

• Carrots
• Cucumbers
• Red peppers
• Sugar snap peas
• Grape tomatoes

It also serves well with whole-grain crackers, pita chips, or pita bread.

And if you’re looking for a way to incorporate this dip into a meal, try pairing it with the other Mediterranean themed recipes such as Lemon Roasted Chicken and Potatoes, Chickpea Tomato Salad, and Greek Salad Skewers.
