Creamy Whipped Feta Dip

We recently hosted Greek Night at our home and had a blast testing and eating various Greek foods. The Creamy Whipped Feta Dip was a big success! It was eaten both as an appetizer with fresh veggies and pita crackers and as an accompaniment for the meats including chicken skewers, flat iron steak and lamb chops. Thank you to my daughter in law, Nicole, for turning us onto this luscious recipe for CreamyWhipped Feta Dip.

Creamy Whipped Feta Dip
