Ingredients

5 ounces feta cheese
2 cloves garlic, peeled

1 large avocado, peeled and pitted
1 lemon, juiced (about 2-3 tablespoons)

1/2 cup packed fresh dill
1/2 cup packed fresh mint

1/2 cup packed fresh basil
1/2 cup packed fresh chives (or green onions)
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup water (plus more as needed)
Sea salt and freshly-cracked black pepper

Instructions

Step 1: In a food processor, combine the feta cheese, garlic, avocado, lemon juice, dill, mint, basil, chives, and Dijon mustard. Pulse briefly to start blending the ingredients.
Step 2: With the processor running, slowly drizzle in 1/4 cup olive oil until the mixture is fully combined and emulsified. Then add 1/4 cup water, or more if needed, to reach your desired dip consistency.
Step 3: Taste the dip and season with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper as needed.

Step 4: Serve immediately with your favorite dippers like fresh vegetables, crackers, or bread. Alternatively, transfer the dip to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

Tips & Variations

Substitute green onions for chives if you prefer a milder onion flavor.
For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.

If the dip is too thick, gradually add more water or olive oil to adjust the texture.
Use fresh lemon juice for the best brightness and flavor.

Storage

Store the dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The dip may thicken after chilling; stir in a little water or olive oil before serving to loosen it. For best flavor, consume within the first two days.

How to Serve

A white bowl with a black rim holds a creamy green spread that has a smooth and slightly chunky texture with visible small green herb flecks throughout. The spread is swirled in a spiral pattern and topped with small white crumbles scattered across the surface. Surrounding the bowl is a ring of sliced multigrain bread pieces with a light brown crust, visible seeds, and a soft, porous interior. The whole scene is set on a white marbled surface. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7
