How to Make this Simple Dip

This feta dip is loaded with flavor and texture and SO freaking good. And for those of you that are like “Ew, feta…” (don’t worry, I know there are some of you out there) you can simply just leave it out, which also makes this dip vegan-friendly.

TIP: Make sure your avocados aren’t too soft so they hold their texture better.

  1. Cut 4oz block of feta into cubes.
  2. In a medium bowl combine diced avocado, feta, diced tomatoes, diced red onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley or cilantro, extra virgin olive oil and vinegar. Sprinkle with salt.
  3. Gently fold together ingredients with large spoon until combined. Be careful not to mash avocado.
  4. Transfer avocado feta dip to serving bowl with dipping vehicle of your choice!

    I could imagine that this is almost better than guacamole with all the flavors. It’s so colorful. Our family loves avocado based dips.

    This looks awesome, but I think I missed something. In the What You Need section, it lists cooked quinoa.
    Is that part of the recipe?

      Hi Mary! Thanks so much for your comment. The “cooked quinoa” was a typo! I was working on another recipe at the same time for later this week, which happens to have quinoa in it 😉 Thanks for letting me know! The recipe as written at the bottom of the post is correct 🙂 Let me know if you make it!

    Sounds Yummy! I would love to top chicken or skirt steak with this! Have you used it that way? How long does it keep?

    How much and what type of vinegar? It’s in the list of ingredients but I didn’t actually see it in the recipe. Thanks.

      Hi there! So sorry about that – it is just 1 tablespoon of vinegar. I used apple cider vinegar because that is what I always have on hand, but you can use a white if you prefer 🙂 I updated the recipe – thank you for your comment!

    This was a small distraction in the first quarter of the Superbowl. After that, it was long gone. I still don’t see adding the vinegar in the instructions, but I gathered from previous comments that I could do so! Delish!

    I learned this recipe from my bosses wife about 10 years ago. I was googling to make sure I didn’t miss any ingredients when I stumbled across your recipe. Its the exact same (I use red wine vinegar and serve with tortilla chips) as the recipe I was given all those years ago 🙂 and I agree, its completly addicting!
