Avocado Feta Dip
St. Patrick’s Day is on Sunday so this week we are going GREEN! We have to celebrate because we are the PEAS:) Green is our color and I love everything green. We have some fun green recipes AND a fun green giveaway for you this week! Make sure you visit the blog tomorrow to enter the giveaway, you don’t want to miss this one!
We are starting green week with an easy Avocado Feta Dip. And when I say easy, I mean EASY! Like this dip can be made in 5 minutes. There is no cooking involved, you just throw all of the ingredients into a food processor or blender and magic happens!
Our Creamy Avocado Yogurt Dip is one of my all-time favorite dips. I love the stuff. I wanted to make that dip last week for an afternoon snack, but Caleb hogged all of our Greek yogurt. I was in the mood for dipping and had avocados to use up, so I looked in our fridge and saw feta cheese. Bingo! A new favorite dip was born!
This dip is thick, creamy, and flavorful. The feta cheese adds the perfect amount of saltiness and blends in with the avocado perfectly! They are a match made in heaven.
I served the Avocado Feta Dip with pita chips and cut up veggies. Josh, Caleb, and I spent the afternoon snacking away! This dip was a hit with the entire family.
If you are looking for an easy dip recipe for parties or every day snacking, make this Avocado Feta Dip! Oh, and the lime juice keeps the dip from turning brown, so you can make it in advance-which makes it perfect for entertaining. I put our leftover dip in the fridge and it was bright green the next day!
And speaking of green, don’t forget to get festive on St. Patrick’s Day by eating this tasty green Avocado Feta Dip! The leprechauns might try to snatch it from you, so be careful:)

This combination sounds STELLAR!!!
Love the feta-avocado combination. Can’t wait to try it!
Yum! I love this combination together! It’s so good!
Hey, I’ve got ripe avocados and used up the last of the yogurt on tartar sauce last night! But I have feta–so I can make this.
One problem–the pigs ate up all the cilantro.
Off to the store.
Thanks!
I can practically TASTE it just reading the recipe! This looks terrific
I love simple 5 minutes dips! AND it’s healthy! (=
I have a ton of feta to use up right now and a whole lot if Downton Abbey to watch! Perfect!
This looks so so yummy!! Can’t wait to see all the other green fun you come up with!!
Ahahaha! I was wondering about what kind of festive dip someone could make for SPD… well, you’ve nailed it!
This sounds fantastic, Maria! The addition of feta would be a great layer of flavor with avocado.
Yum!!! This looks super festive and full of flavor. Feta and avocados go so well together
This looks wonderful! It sound perfect for a quick app for a party!
Hand me a bag of pita chips and let me go to town on this dip!!
I love it! Sounds like such a yummy combination!
You had me until I saw “cilantro.” Can’t stand the stuff; when I try to eat it, it’s like I am eating dish soap (you know, the stuff you keep at the sink when you want to hand wash a dish instead of putting it in the dishwasher). Any suggestions as to what to put in its place because I really want to give this a go.
Yum! I have everything for this dip and will be giving it a try! LOVE cilantro. =)
Oh I know I’m going to love this avocado feta combo!
So divine! I would think you wouldn’t need to add much salt here with the addition of feta. Cant wait to try it.
GIVE ME TO MEEEEEEE.

I’m so excited to make this – the only problem is that it’s always a nightmare to get ripe avocado here!

Great idea. I love it!
I can just imagine the saltiness of the feta mixed with creamy avocado! I bet this dip is spectacular!
