Recipe Ingredients

• 2 ripe avocados - peeled and diced (ripe but not too soft)
• 4 oz crumbled feta - about 1 cup
• 1 cup chopped cherry tomatoes - or grape tomatoes
• ¼ cup diced red onion
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 2 Tbsp lemon juice
• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp ground black pepper
• Crackers or pita chips - for serving

PREP THE AVOCADOS: Start by peeling and dicing 2 medium avocados that are ripe-ish—soft to the touch when you press the skin, but not too soft. You want them to hold their shape when you dice them. Place the diced avocado in a medium mixing bowl.

How To Make Avocado Feta Dip

Full ingredients and instructions are also in the recipe card at the bottom of this blog post.

STEP 1: Add 4 oz (about 1 cup) crumbled feta, 1 cup chopped cherry tomatoes (seeds removed if you prefer a less liquid released into the dip), ¼ cup of finely diced red onion (soak it in cold water for a milder flavor if you'd like), and 3 minced garlic cloves to the bowl with the avocados. Toss everything gently to combine.

STEP 2: Drizzle in 1 Tbsp of olive oil and 2 Tbsp of lemon juice, then sprinkle in ½ tsp of salt and ¼ tsp ground black pepper. Gently mix everything together with a spoon, being careful not to mash the avocados too much. You want the dip to stay chunky!

Once everything is well combined, place in the fridge to sit for 1 hour. This will allow the ingredients to meld together. Then serve with your favorite crackers or pita chips. It’s the perfect appetizer or snack!

How To Store Leftovers

• REFRIGERATE: Store the dip in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, pressing plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent browning.
• TIP: Avocados tend to brown over time, so this dip is best enjoyed within 1-2 days. However, if stored properly, it can last up to 3 days in the fridge.
