I’m pretty sure that dip is one of my favorite foods. Pretty much anything can be turned into a dip. Leftover veggies like sweet potatoes, butternut squash, potatoes – all good. Stir some leftover stuff into sour cream and toss in some ranch spices – yum!

If you ask my husband if I can turn anything into a dip, her would answer with a resounding “yes!”. Then he’d say that, “anything that doesn’t get eaten gets turned into a dip.”

It sort of reminded me of pesto with avocado. Maybe I’ll try serving it on pasta and see how it goes. I think it’ll be delicious!

I mentioned the other day that I’d have two versions of this avocado dip for you. The first was the Mexican Avocado Cotija Dip.

And, this more Mediterranean version with feta cheese and basil.

Serve this Mediterranean Avocado Feta Dip with tortilla chips, pita, veggies, or crackers. I think it’ll be great as a sandwich spread as well.

    Clever! My daughter especially loves feta (eats it straight with potato chips of all things) and avocado. She will tear this dip up – great idea!
