WORLD’S BEST FETA TZATZIKI DIP

This is the world’s BEST whipped Feta Tzatziki Dip, perfect with my Greek Pork Tenderloin Kabobs or with fresh vegies or warm pita bread! It’s a Greek feast!

INGREDIENTS:Feta Tzatziki Dip1 large cucumber, peeled1 teaspoon salt8 oz. cream cheese (softened & whipped)1/3 cup (3 oz). feta cheese (room temperature)1 cup (8 oz). plain Greek yogurt or sour cream3 cloves garlic, finely minced1/3 cup fresh dill (loosely packed)2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice1 tablespoon red wine vinegarSalt & Pepper to taste

HOW WE MAKE THESE:1. Dice cucumber and place in a fine mesh sieve. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon

salt and stir. Let sit at least 15 minutes then press down on cucumbers with the back of a spoon to release extra juices (you are trying to eliminate as much “extra” juice as possible from the cucumber). Set squeezed cucumber pieces to the side.

2. Add feta and cream cheese to food processor and pulse until cheeses are mixed. Continue to mix 3-4 minutes until cheeses are very smooth. Add remaining Feta Tzatziki ingredients, including cucumber, and pulse until smooth. Refrigerate. Stir in milk a little at a time if needed when ready to serve in order to thin to desired consistency.

3. I usually sprinkle with some additional Feta cheese crumbles and fresh snipped chives or dill just before serving.
