Ingredients You’ll Need

8 ounces feta cheese: This is the star of the dish! Opt for high-quality feta for the best flavor. If you’re in a pinch, goat cheese can be a tasty alternative.
2 roma tomatoes, chopped: These tomatoes add juiciness and a subtle sweetness. Feel free to substitute with cherry tomatoes if you prefer bite-sized pieces.
2 green onions, chopped: These provide a mild onion flavor and a pop of color. Shallots or chives can also work well if needed.
1 baby cucumber, chopped: Crunchy and refreshing, it balances the creaminess of the feta. If you can’t find baby cucumbers, a standard cucumber will do—just scoop out the seeds to avoid excess moisture.
3-4 tablespoons olive oil: A drizzle of good-quality olive oil enhances the flavor and smooths out the texture. If you’re looking for a lighter alternative, use a splash of lemon juice instead.
1 ½ – 2 tablespoons Cavender’s Greek seasoning: This blend of spices brings a hint of the Mediterranean directly to your dip, enhancing the overall flavor. You can make your own blend or use your favorite herb combination.

How to Make Feta Dip

Crumble the feta: Start by placing the block of feta cheese in a medium-sized serving bowl. Use a fork to crumble it into bite-sized pieces—don’t worry about making it perfect; a rustic texture adds to its charm!
Add vegetables: Next, toss in the chopped roma tomatoes, green onions, and baby cucumber. Gently mix everything together so that the colorful veggies are evenly distributed throughout the feta.
Add oil and seasoning: Drizzle 3-4 tablespoons of olive oil over the mixture, allowing it to be absorbed by the feta and veggies. Then sprinkle 1 ½ – 2 tablespoons of Cavender’s Greek seasoning on top. Gently toss everything again to combine, letting the flavors meld together beautifully. Finally, serve immediately!

Storing & Reheating

After serving, any leftover feta dip can be stored at room temperature for a couple of hours. For longer storage, transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate it for up to 3 days. While it’s best enjoyed fresh, you can freeze it for up to 3 months; just remember to allow it to thaw in the fridge before serving. When you’re ready to enjoy again, stir it up gently. The flavor may change a bit, but the freshness is worth revitalizing with a drizzle of olive oil.

Chef’s Helpful Tips

Ensure your feta is at room temperature for easier crumbling.
Avoid overmixing to preserve the chunky texture that makes this dip delightful.
Feeling adventurous? Add a splash of lemon juice for a zesty kick or mix in some olives for an extra Mediterranean twist.
If you prefer a creamier texture, add a dollop of Greek yogurt when you mix in the olive oil.
This dip is perfect to prepare ahead of time; letting it sit in the fridge can deepen the flavors!
