Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt

- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup of crumbled feta cheese, 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped dill, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 clove of minced garlic, and salt and pepper to taste.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt as the base of your dip. Use a spatula or a whisk to make it smooth and creamy.
- Next, add the crumbled feta cheese to the bowl. Gently fold it into the yogurt until well combined, leaving some larger pieces for texture.
- Chop the fresh dill finely and add it to the mixture, along with the minced garlic. Stir well to ensure that the dill and garlic are evenly distributed throughout the dip.
- Drizzle in the olive oil and mix again until all the ingredients are fully incorporated. The olive oil adds a nice richness to the dip.
- Season the dip with salt and pepper to taste. Start with a small pinch of each and adjust according to your preference, mixing well after each addition.
- Once the dip is well combined and seasoned, transfer it to a serving bowl. You can garnish it with a sprinkle of additional dill or a few crumbles of feta on top for presentation.
- Serve the Greek dip immediately with pita chips, fresh vegetables, or crusty bread for dipping. Enjoy your delicious and refreshing Greek dip!
Tips
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for the creamiest, most luxurious texture.
- Make sure your feta is high-quality and crumbled fresh for the best flavor.
- Let the dip sit for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
- For extra presentation points, drizzle a little extra olive oil on top and sprinkle some fresh dill just before serving.
- This dip can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, making it perfect for meal prep or last-minute entertaining.
- Experiment with additional herbs like mint or oregano to customize the flavor profile.
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
