Summer snacking for me is best when there are crunchy vegetables served with a luscious dip to scoop up. This Whipped Feta Dip fits the bill. It’s one of the easiest way to get a snack together are requires just a few ingredients.

My humble little garden box produced some beautiful carrots and radishes, and they paired perfectly with this creamy dip that’s garnished with fresh herbs, toasted nuts and just a pinch of heat from red pepper flakes.

You can make this your own by mixing and matching the garnishes. Try chopped pistachios, any fresh herb or even extra lemon zest on top for an extra punch of citrus. With a solid Whipped Feta Base, you really can’t go wrong.
