Whether you’re sticking to a low-carb or keto diet or just want to impress your friends at your next get-together, this dip is about to become your new favorite recipe!
I LOVE dips. Don’t you? Whether it’s for chips, veggies, or crackers, dips are a life staple. But let’s be real, sometimes they can get a little boring. That’s where whipped feta dip comes in to save the day!
Why Whipped Feta Dip?
Not only is this dip incredibly delicious and addicting, but it’s also super easy to make. With just a few simple ingredients and a food processor (or blender), you’ll have a creamy and flavorful dip ready in minutes.
But what really sets whipped feta dip apart from others is its star ingredient: feta cheese. Feta adds a tangy and salty kick to the dip that perfectly balances out the creaminess. Plus, it’s a healthier alternative to other cheese dips as feta is lower in calories and fat.
How To Make The Best Whipped Feta Dip Recipe
Making this dip is so easy! Using fresh, whole ingredients, the flavors will be unbeatable.
To assemble a fresh feta dip, you will need:
- Feta cheese for the main star of the dip.
- Greek yogurt to make it extra creamy and protein-rich.
- Olive oil for that smooth, velvety texture.
- Garlic for a flavor boost (if you’re into that).
- Lemon juice to add some brightness and a little zesty kick.
- Fresh herbs like dill or parsley for a pop of freshness and color (totally optional).
Can I use a block of feta cheese instead of crumbles?
Absolutely! While crumbled feta is convenient and makes for a smoother dip, using a block of feta will give you a chunkier texture. This can be great for those who like more texture in their dips or want to use it as a spread instead.
My feta dip is too runny! What do I do?
If your dip ends up a bit too thin, don’t worry! You can easily thicken it by adding more feta or Greek yogurt until you reach your desired consistency.
Can I use dried herbs instead of fresh herbs?
While fresh herbs will give your dip the best flavor, you can use dried herbs if that’s what you have on hand. Just remember to adjust the amount, as dried herbs tend to be stronger in flavor.
I personally prefer to use fresh herbs, but that’s up to you!

Recipe Variations to Try
Give your whipped feta dip a personal touch with some fun twists! Here are a few easy ways to take your dip to the next level:
Make it Spicy
Add a pinch of red chili flakes or harissa, or drizzle chili-infused olive oil over the top for a spicy kick. Perfect for those who love a little heat!
Go Full Mediterranean
Amp up the flavors by folding in sun-dried tomatoes, roasted red peppers, or even olives into the dip. This gives it a savory, Mediterranean flair that pairs beautifully with veggies.
Herb Explosion
Swap the mint and parsley for dill and chives if you’re a fan of herby, tangy flavors. This variation is perfect as a topping for baked fish or fresh salads.
Vegan Option
Replace the feta cheese with a dairy-free alternative (such as almond-based feta) and swap Greek yogurt for plain coconut yogurt. Same creamy texture, no dairy involved.
Nut-Free
Skip the pistachios and opt for pumpkin seeds or sesame seeds to keep it nut-free while still adding some crunch.
