Your new favorite easy feta avocado dip

A few months ago while enjoying a Greek salad, I came across a recipe for a creamy avocado dip. I looked down and realized that my salad could use some avocado, because, well… when is it a bad time for avocado? Never, I know, but especially not when you have a plain Greek salad in front of you.

I decided to add some and realized how delicious it tasted alongside the feta. It turned out to be the best decision I made all day, and the magical flavor combination gave me the idea for this delicious dip that’s absolutely perfect for layering on toast or enjoying with chips or veggies. I mean, it’s creamy avocado mixed with salty feta… need I say more?

Ingredients in avocado and feta dip

Once the idea was born, I gathered the ingredients and got to work. Here is a list of everything included in the final product:

• Feta cheese: First up is 1/2 cup of feta. I used a feta from block because they have so much more flavor than the crumbles. Trader Joe’s has the best cheeses, and I definitely recommend their feta for this dip! They have a couple different varieties to choose from.
• Avocados: 2 ripe avocados provide the perfect amount for this dish.
• Cilantro: Fresh herbs really make a dip recipe’s flavor happen. My favorite herb is cilantro, so I threw in 1/4 cup, packed. You can replace it with parsley if preferred.
• Lime: The juice of one lime adds freshness and that much needed zing!
• Garlic: This is a given, but since all dips are better with garlic, I was sure to add 1 clove!
• Onion: 1/3 cup of white onion adds crunchy flavor to the dip.
• Salt & pepper: These are a must — add to taste!
• Hot sauce: Finally, finish things off with green hot sauce.

Tools used to create this recipe

All you need to create avocado and feta dip is a food processor! A spoon or spatula will be helpful as well in scraping down the sides as you blitz. For measuring, grab 1 tbsp, 1/4 cup, 1/3 cup, and 1/2 cup.
