Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, whole milk or 2%
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 medium clove garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1-2 tbsp pickled jalapeno slices
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to the bowl of a food processor. Sprinkle in a few drops of the jalapeno pickling juice.
- Blend until dip is smooth. Taste and add more pepper or pickling juice as needed.
- Serve with crudites or pita bread. If you wish, top the dip with some crumbled feta, olive oil, or chopped pickled jalapenos.
Notes
- Paprika: I added a little paprika to the top for color. Just a pinch sprinkled over the bowl is enough.
- Jalapenos: I used pickled, sliced jalapenos since I wanted the hot pepper plus the vinegar in the jar as flavor.
