Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large roasted red peppers
- 200 g low-fat feta cheese
- 120 g plain Greek yogurt (low fat)
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Place the roasted red peppers on a paper towel or clean kitchen towel and gently blot them to remove excess moisture.
In a food processor or blender, combine the roasted red peppers, low-fat feta cheese, plain Greek yogurt, and extra virgin olive oil.
Peel the garlic clove and add it to the food processor.
Add the lemon juice, paprika, dried oregano, and black pepper to the mixture.
Blend the ingredients together until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the food processor if necessary to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if needed, such as adding a bit more paprika or a pinch of salt (if necessary, depending on the saltiness of your feta).
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and drizzle with a small amount of olive oil for garnish, if desired.
Serve immediately with pita bread, crackers, or raw vegetables, or refrigerate for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
