Instructions

Toss the 8 ounces feta cheese, ¾ cup full-fat plain Greek yogurt, zest of 1 lemon, and ¼ teaspoon kosher salt into a food processor.

Flip the switch and drizzle in the 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil through the feed tube.

Continue whizzing the mixture until the dip is kinda smooth, about 1 minute. Turn off the food processor, scrape down the sides, and blend until lusciously creamy, about 30 seconds more.

Scrape the dip into a serving bowl and top with a drizzle of oil, ½ teaspoon dried oregano, and ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes. Keep chilled until you're ready to serve.
