Hummus Feta Dip

Hummus Feta Dip

This hummus feta dip combines the creamy texture of hummus with the tangy kick of feta cheese. It’s the perfect dip for pita bread, fresh veggies, or crackers, and is quick to make yet bursting with flavor.

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • Hummus: 1 cup – The base of the dip, providing a creamy texture and mild flavor.
  • Feta Cheese: 1/2 cup – Adds a tangy, salty kick that balances the smooth hummus.
  • Olive Oil: 1 tablespoon – For drizzling on top and adding richness.
  • Garlic: 1 clove – Minced, to give the dip a slight bite and aroma.
  • Fresh Parsley: 1 tablespoon – Chopped, for a pop of color and freshness.
  • Pita Bread: 1 package – Sliced into triangles for dipping.
  • Fresh Vegetables (carrot sticks, cucumber, bell peppers): As needed – For a crunchy, healthy option to scoop up the dip.

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: If you’re making your own pita bread or toasting it, heat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a food processor, combine the hummus, feta cheese, olive oil, and garlic. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and smooth the top with a spatula.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Sprinkle chopped parsley over the top and drizzle with a little extra olive oil. Optionally, garnish with paprika or chili flakes for an extra burst of flavor.
  5. Cook to Perfection: If you’re toasting pita bread, slice it into triangles and bake for about 5-7 minutes, until golden and crispy.
  6. Finishing Touches: Arrange the pita triangles and fresh vegetable sticks around the dip for easy dipping.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days. This dip is best enjoyed fresh, but it also makes a great make-ahead snack.

Notes

  • For an extra smooth dip, blend the hummus and feta together in a food processor for a velvety texture.
  • Adjust the amount of feta to suit your taste—more feta will make the dip saltier and creamier.
  • Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika or sumac for added flavor.
  • If you want a bit of heat, add a pinch of chili flakes or drizzle with hot sauce.
