A creamy, fresh, and flavorful avocado and feta dip perfect for veggie platters and quick snacks. Ready in under 10 minutes, this dip combines ripe avocados, tangy feta, and fresh herbs for a crowd-pleasing appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
  • 4 ounces (115 grams) feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) plain full-fat Greek yogurt (can substitute with dairy-free coconut yogurt)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup fresh herbs (parsley, chives, and tarragon), chopped
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: pinch of red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a food processor or blender.
  2. Add the crumbled feta cheese to the processor with the avocado.
  3. Pour in the Greek yogurt and fresh lemon juice.
  4. Add the minced garlic and chopped fresh herbs (parsley, chives, and tarragon).
  5. Blend everything until smooth and creamy, about 30-45 seconds, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
  6. With the blender running, slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil.
  7. Taste and season with salt sparingly (due to feta’s saltiness), freshly ground black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes.
  8. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to let flavors meld.
  9. While the dip chills, wash and cut your chosen veggies into bite-sized sticks or rounds.
  10. Serve the dip with a colorful veggie platter and enjoy.

Notes

If the dip is too thick, stir in a teaspoon or two of water or extra lemon juice before serving. Use ripe avocados for best creaminess. Taste before adding salt as feta is salty. The dip holds well refrigerated for up to 2 days. For dairy-free or vegan versions, substitute feta and Greek yogurt with silken tofu and nutritional yeast or vegan alternatives.
