Serves 8
Ingredients
  • 8 oz block quality feta, drained
  • ¾ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 lemon zest
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, more as needed
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes (to your taste)
  • 2 Tbsp chopped fresh mint
  • 2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 Tbsp crushed pistachios, optional
Directions
  1. In the bowl of a large food processor fitted with a blade, combine the feta, Greek yogurt and lemon zest. Blend, and while the processor is running, drizzle olive oil through the top opening, until the feta is whipped to a smooth mixture.
  2. Transfer the whipped feta to a serving plate. With the back of your spoon, smooth the top of the feta, making an indentation in the middle (or a “well”). Pour a bit of olive oil all over the feta, then top with the Aleppo pepper, fresh herbs, and nuts.
  3. Serve with pita chips or pita wedges.
