Super Sides {3} - Dipppppp

At some event last month, the kitchen made an insane feta cheese dip that I could not stop nibbling on. It was a dip that I dreamed about often. Yes, I had dreams about this dip. I talked to Gary about it at some point and he seemed just as excited to try it. SO it was my goal to make it and thought that a family Christmas was the perfect platform. I have to say that I was a bit nervous to try a new recipe that I wasn't even sure was THE recipe on a group of people but thought I might as well.

The day before I was to make it, I worked with the individual who actually made the dip. He so kindly shared with me the recipe he had used and IT WAS THE EXACT SAME RECIPE! I just about peed with excitement.

Needless to say, I made the dip and I feel like it was a hit. If not with the family, it sure was for Gary and I. Seriously, this dip is amazing.

Garlic Feta Cheese Dip

4 oz crumbled feta (I used block feta and crumbled it myself)
4 oz cream cheese
1/3 cup mayo
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/8 tsp dill weed
1/8 tsp dried thyme

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well until blended together. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Serve with crackers, pretzel crisps, assorted crisp breads or veggies.

Note: Recipe was quadrupled for pictures shown below.
