Ingredients

▢ 8 ounces block quality feta drained
▢ 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
▢ 1 lemon zest
▢ 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil more as needed
▢ 1 teaspoon Aleppo pepper or red pepper flakes (to your taste)
▢ 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
▢ 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
▢ 2-3 tablespoons toasted pine nuts optional
▢ 1-2 tablespoons crushed pistachios optional

Instructions

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.
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.
Serve with pita chips or pita wedges.

Notes

• Serve whipped feta with pita chips or your favorite veggies.
