Ingredients

8 oz (250 g) feta cheese, crumbled

3 tbsp (45 mL) olive oil

2 garlic cloves, minced

Finely grated peel of 1 lemon

1 tbsp (15 mL) lemon juice

Generous grinding black pepper

3 tbsp (45 mL) freshly chopped dill

2 tbsp (25 mL) snipped chives or 1 small green onion, thinly sliced

Preparation

  1. Place feta, oil, garlic, peel, juice and black pepper in a food processor. Whirl until it starts to blend together but still has texture. Stir in dill and chives until mixed. Serve with crackers, sliced baguette or use as a spread for sandwiches, wraps or burgers, or as a filling for large cherry tomatoes or scooped-out cucumber slices.
