I wanted to share a really delicious and healthy recipe for Whipped Feta. It's low carb and packed with protein!
I personally love it on roasted Brussels sprouts, (sooo gooood) but it's also fantastic as a dip for vegetables or with pita bread.
Here are the ingredients you'll need:
* 8 ounces feta cheese block (not crumbled)
* 1/2 cup full-fat Greek yogurt (cream cheese can be substituted)
* 1 teaspoon lemon zest
* 1 teaspoon lemon juice
* 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
* 1 clove of garlic or 1 teaspoon jarred minced garlic
* Drizzle of honey (or hot honey) in the dip or on top (optional, but it adds a nice touch of sweetness)
Optional toppings you can add include fresh herbs like mint, parsley, fresh dill, red pepper flakes, oregano, or thyme, as well as hot honey, pine nuts, or olives.
To make the whipped feta:
Combine the feta, Greek yogurt, and lemon zest in the bowl of a large food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Blend the mixture, and while the processor is running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil through the top opening until the feta is whipped to a smooth and creamy consistency.
Enjoy!
