Feta Dip
This Feta Dip is something that you can make in minutes and serve immediately for guests. I love to toast up some Naan bread in the oven with olive oil and a sprinkle of salt for dipping! You can also use Pita Chips, crackers, crusty bread, or vegetables!
Do you have fresh garden cucumbers? That is another favorite for serving with this dip.
How to Make it
*See recipe card below this post for ingredient quantities and full instructions.
- Add softened cream cheese to a food processor and blend until smooth.
- Add Feta cheese, plain Greek yogurt, garlic cloves, dill, oregano, and lemon juice and blend until combined.
- Serve immediately or store in the fridge until ready to serve.
- To serve warm, bake in a covered baking dish at 350° for 25 minutes.
Substitute for Plain Greek Yogurt
If you find yourself in need of a Greek Yogurt substitute, I would recommend using equal amounts of one of the following:
- Sour cream. This would be my first choice, I make this substitution often.
- Mayo can also be used.
- Cottage Cheese is another alternative, the consistency won’t be quite the same but it’ll have great flavor.
Storage:
- Store in a covered airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
What To Serve With Feta Dip
- Toasted Naan bread, crusty French bread, crackers, pita chips, and vegetables are perfect with this dip. (Sliced cucumbers are particularly refreshing with this dip.)

I’m so glad I made feta dip for a work party. It was easy to make and DELICIOUS! I served it cold with mini sweet peppers, carrot chips, celery, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and a bag of pita chips. I bet it would be good baked in halved mini peppers. You could get fancy and pipe the dip in. Everyone raved about it. I used 3 cloves of garlic and it was garlicky, which I love. Those pretzel flats or crostini would be another good accompaniment. It was something different than the usual and it was gone in no time! Thanks, Stephanie!
I’m SOO happy it was a hit! This is one of my top 5 favorite dip recipes, maybe even my top 3. I never thought about using a pipe bag so make it fancier, that’s genius! I love what you served this with, thank you so much for the review my friend!! 🙂 -Stephanie
