INGREDIENTS NOTES:
FETA CHEESE:
- Feta cheese is added to make this recipe; we can use any brand & style of cheese.
COTTAGE CHEESE:
- Cottage cheese is also added with the feta cheese; it can help to create the volume of the dip. You can also add the ricotta cheese it also works well.
ROASTED RED PEPPER:
- We should roast the red pepper or buy the pre-roasted peppers. But we should first drain the liquid before adding it to the dip otherwise it will make the dip watery.
LEMON JUICE:
- I use fresh lemon juice to make it tangy.
SMOKED PAPRIKA:
- I use smoked paprika to give the Smokey flavor to the dish, we can also use the regular paprika as well.
RED PEPPER:
- If we want to make the dip spicier then we can add the red chili pepper or jalapenos in the dip.

- we can add Greek yogurt or heavy cream to make it extra creamy.
