👩🍳 Instructions
-
1
For the Whipped Feta Dip: In a food processor, combine crumbled feta cheese and softened cream cheese. Process until mostly smooth, leaving some small feta crumbles for texture.
-
2
Add olive oil, lemon juice, chopped dill, minced garlic (if using), and black pepper to the food processor. Process again until the mixture is light, fluffy, and well combined.
-
3
Transfer the dip to a small bowl, drizzle with extra olive oil, and garnish with fresh dill. Serve immediately with raw vegetables for dipping.
-
4
For the Everything Bagel Cheese Crisps: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
5
Spoon small piles (about 1 tablespoon each) of shredded cheese onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each. Flatten slightly into thin discs.
-
6
Sprinkle each cheese disc generously with everything bagel seasoning.
-
7
Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
-
8
Remove from oven and let cool completely on the parchment paper. They will crisp up further as they cool. Carefully peel off the parchment and serve alongside the dip.
💡 Notes
Both the dip and cheese crisps are excellent for meal prep. The dip can be made 3-4 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the fridge. The crisps can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, though they are best enjoyed fresh for maximum crunch. For variety, try different herbs in the dip like mint or parsley, or experiment with different cheese types for the crisps.
