Greek Layer Dip





Cream Cheese, Hummus, Veggies, Spices? Yes please!!! My Mother in Law found this awesome recipe for a 7-Layer Greek Dip and I loved it so much I requested she make it at my Birthday this year. It is simple, delicious and can be modified completely to you liking. While I like Greek flare I don't always love every ingredient such as Feta. My husband doesn't love cucumbers so I only put them on half of the dish. The recipe I mimicked was from the fantastic site Our Best Bites! Find the recipe HERE.



Here is how I assembled my Greek Layer Dip! Not sure how many layers I ended up with but it was AAAAHHH-MAZING!!!!!!

1-8oz Pkg. of Cream Cheese (softened)
1 tsp. dill weed
2-cloves of minced garlic (add more or less depending on your liking)
2 tsp. lemon juice
1.5c hummus (I used regular but sprinkled a little Mrs. Dash seasoning on top of the hummus layer)
1c seeded, diced tomatoes (I used cherry tomatoes, they are a little sweeter)
.5c Kalamata olives
2 stalks shopped green onions

I love to eat this with pita chips, crunchy flat bread, and celery. I'll be honest, it was my lunch today!!! It's so addicting! Enjoy!! Let me know how you alter yours!




Sending food love your way! <3 <3 <3 <3
