Ingredients

Dip Ingredients

  • 3 ripe avocados (peeled and diced)
  • 1 ½ cups cherry tomatoes (cut into 4ths)
  • ¾ cup red onion (finely chopped)
  • 6 ounces feta cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 Tbsp lime juice (to taste)
  • ½ tsp sea salt (to taste)
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro (chopped, optional)

Instructions

  1. Mash Avocados: Add the peeled and diced avocados to a large mixing bowl along with the sea salt and lime juice. Mash some of the avocado to create a partially creamy dip, leaving the pieces fairly chunky for a pleasing texture. Adjust the mashing to your desired consistency, whether more creamy or more chunky.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Add the chopped cherry tomatoes, finely chopped red onion, feta cheese, minced garlic, and chopped cilantro (if using) to the bowl. Mix all ingredients until well combined. Taste and adjust the seasoning by adding more salt, lime juice, garlic, onion, or cilantro as preferred.
  3. Garnish: Garnish the top of the dip with extra chopped cilantro, cherry tomatoes, or red onions for a colorful presentation.
  4. Serve: Use the dip as a spread, condiment, or dip. It pairs perfectly with corn tortilla chips, pita chips, crackers, sandwiches, burgers, or salads.
  5. Store Leftovers: Avocado dip is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours to maintain its freshness.

Notes

  • For best flavor and texture, use ripe avocados that yield slightly to gentle pressure.
  • Adjust lime juice and salt to suit your personal taste.
  • Feta cheese adds a tangy creaminess but can be omitted or substituted with a vegan cheese for dietary preferences.
  • Fresh cilantro is optional but adds a bright herbal note.
  • To reduce browning, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the dip before refrigerating.
