Caprese (aka Summer) Dip

Ingredients
  

Dip Base

  • 2 8-ounce blocks of cream cheese, softened
  • 8 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 bunch greens onions, chopped

Garnish

  • 1/2 bunch green onions, chopped
  • 1 pint grape tomatoes halved or quartered (Or you can use fresh local tomatoes, chopped.)
  • A big handful of fresh basil, chopped

For the dressing

  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 4 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp chopped garlic
  • NOTE: I sometimes use a pre-made balsamic glaze if I don’t have time to make the dressing.

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl combine cream cheese, feta and green onions. Blend until smooth and combined.
  • Form into a ball on a plate, making a well in the center. Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days at this point.
  • Top with the chopped tomatoes, basil, additional green onions and some of the balsamic dressing. We serve it with pita chips or any kind of cracker.
