Ingredients
- 3 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1-2 cloves garlic pressed or minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice or to taste
- zest from half of one lemon
- 3 ounces feta cheese excess moisture removed and crumbled

Instructions
- To a medium bowl add cream cheese, yogurt, olive oil, garlic (minced or use garlic press), chopped dill, lemon juice and zest.
- Using a hand mixer on high, whip until smooth then stir in feta cheese by hand.
TIPS:
- I recommend buying a block of feta and crumble it yourself. Block feta is usually higher in quality and the taste is better.
- Start with 1 or 2 garlic cloves mincing or using a garlic press then add more garlic slowly until you reach the garlic flavor you're looking for.
- Transfer to a shallow bowl or serving plate, drizzle a little olive oil and (optional) garnish with your favorites. Serve right away or chilled with naan or pita, baguette, pita chips, fresh vegetables or pretzels.
