Notes
Dip is too thick?
If your feta dip is too thick you can thin it out with some of the feta brine, or if you don't have any, a little bit more olive oil.
Food processor/blender
If you don't have a food processor then you can go ahead and use a blender, you might just need a little bit more liquid.
Substitutions
I prefer it with cream cheese, but you can easily sub in some Greek yogurt if you want to lighten things up a bit.
If you want to use some fresh herbs instead of garlic powder, these work well. Just be mindful it will change the flavor:
- Chopped dill
- Chopped parsley
- Chopped cilantro/coriander
- Fresh thyme
- Fresh oregano
