A creamy, tangy whipped feta dip paired with fresh spring vegetables, perfect for a quick, wholesome snack or appetizer that celebrates the season’s best flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 small clove garlic, minced (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chives, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Radishes, sliced thin
  • Snap peas, trimmed
  • Carrots, cut into sticks
  • Cucumber slices or baby cucumbers
  • Cherry tomatoes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Let the cream cheese soften at room temperature for about 20 minutes. Crumble the feta into smaller chunks.
  2. In a food processor, combine crumbled feta, softened cream cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic (if using). Pulse until creamy and smooth, about 1 to 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
  3. Transfer the whipped cheese to a bowl and fold in chopped dill and chives. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  4. Rinse and dry spring vegetables. Slice radishes thinly, trim snap peas, cut carrots into sticks, and slice cucumbers as desired. Arrange vegetables around the dip on a platter.
  5. Chill the dip for at least 30 minutes to let flavors meld, or serve immediately. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and extra fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

Soften cream cheese well before whipping to avoid lumps. Pulse slowly and scrape sides for best texture. If dip is too thick, add a splash of olive oil or water; if too thin, add more cream cheese or feta. Chill for at least 30 minutes for best flavor. Can be made vegan with plant-based cream cheese and tofu-based feta alternatives.
