Green Goddess Whipped Feta
Herbaceous, creamy and fresh, this Green Goddess Whipped Feta is going to be the perfect addition to your summer recipe repertoire. Serve with crudites, flatbread or spread on toasted fresh bread, the options are endless
Inspired by the amazing Melissa Clark at NYT, this divine herby and creamy herby whipped feta is everything. I’ve adjusted the quantities for a more whipped feta consistency and used a personal favourite blend of herbs. Serve with fresh vegetables, flatbreads, crackers, or spread on a bagel and enjoy as it. Leftovers are delicious stirred through pasta. The versatility of this spread is only matched by its deliciousness! Tangy, salty and moreish, you’re going to want to dip absolutely everything in here!
As delicious as this dip is, it also couldn’t be simpler to make. You’re going to simply pop your ingredients into a food processor, blend, and voila! Dip on tap.
Also, you’ll need only 8 basic supermarket ingredients to make this surprisingly luxurious dip, and it comes together in under 5 minutes. Could it be any easier? Try spicing it up with any herbs or seasonings you fancy, or simply enjoy it as written.

Frequently Asked Questions
I don’t have all of these herbs, what can I use instead?
If you don’t have access to all of the herbs listed, feel free to use what you have on hand. Mint is a great addition!
Can I make this vegan?
Absolutely! Just make sure to use a plant-based yoghurt or water in your dip instead of a dairy-based yoghurt, and add in a vegan or non-dairy feta.
