Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 small garlic clove, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons water (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
In a food processor or blender, combine the crumbled feta cheese, Greek yogurt, and mayonnaise. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Add the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, honey, and black pepper to the blender. Blend again until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture has a smooth consistency.
If the dressing is too thick for your liking, add water one tablespoon at a time and blend until the desired consistency is reached.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more lemon juice for tanginess, honey for sweetness, or black pepper to taste.
Transfer the dressing to a serving bowl or jar. Use immediately, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Serve as a salad dressing, dip for fresh veggies, or a sauce for grilled meats or pita bread.
