Directions

Prepare the Dip:
In a food processor or blender, combine the avocado, feta, yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic (if using), salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust lemon, salt, or yogurt if needed.

Plate It:
Spoon the dip onto a plate or shallow bowl. Swirl it with the back of a spoon.

Top It:
Add the cherry tomatoes on top or on the side. Sprinkle with chopped herbs, red pepper flakes, seeds, and a generous drizzle of olive oil.

Serve:
Pair with toasted bread or warm pita. Serve with extra feta and olive oil for dipping.


Tips:

  • For a spicier version, add a pinch of chili flakes to the dip itself.
  • Keep the avocado pit in the dip until ready to serve to prevent browning.
