really really good
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used the juice of one lemon, no zest, and added a couple tablespoons of both plain yogurt and sour cream to balance out the... texture. I also didn't use as much feta as called for, but it turned out great. I'll definitely make it again.Read more

Awesome!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've made this dip several times and it's always a hit! I use half the amount of feta, and shallots instead of garlic, and... it's a winner!Read more

I used this as an hors d'oeuvre at a dinner party and the bowl practically got licked clean. If it's a large party, double... it! This dip's a hit!Read more

So easy and so delicious.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I followed the recipe exactly, next time I may roast the garlic first because the garlic taste was a little strong. It's... also delicious served warm on sliced baguette rounds.Read more

Good, but not great.
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I took the other viewers' advice and used half feta, half plain cream cheese to tone it down. But after doing that I found it... too bland, so I doubled the garlic. (I also didn't grill the onions first, so I'm thinking that affected the flavor.)Read more
