Whipped feta is a really great party appetizer that you can make in no time at all. You can pair it with crackers, veggies, or nuts. Its tangy, salty flavor and creamy texture make it a versatile spread or dip. Make this recipe your own by adding chili flakes, honey, lemon juice, roasted garlic, and tomatoes to the top. The base will always be the same—all you have to do is add your own flair.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup full-fat sheep’s milk feta cheese, drained of all brine
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Toppings of your choice

Instructions:

  1. Break up the feta into a food processor fitted with a steel blade and pulse until crumbled, about 10 seconds.
  2. Add the cream cheese and process until completely smooth and creamy, for about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary to make sure it’s all combined.
  3. Transfer the whipped feta to a serving dish and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle the toasted pine nuts and cracked black pepper on top and serve immediately.
