½ Cup Cream Cheese
1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
2 Cloves Garlic
½ Teaspoon Paprika
½ Teaspoon Salt
½ Teaspoon Black Pepper

2 Teaspoons Honey
1 Tablespoon Pistachios Chopped

Instructions

Take Cream Cheese and Feta out of the refrigerator 15-20 minutes prior to making this dip to soften the cheeses.
Add feta cheese, cream cheese, lemon juice, garlic cloves, paprika, salt, and pepper to a food processor bowl.
Use the pulse button to blend the ingredients. Scrape the side of the bowl and pulse again to make sure all ingredients are well combined.
Scoop Whipped Feta Dip into a small bowl. Use a spoon to make an indention/ small well in the middle of the dip. Drizzle honey into the center of the dip.
Chop a few shelled pistachios and sprinkle around the edge of the dip for added texture. Serve with assorted vegetable, crackers, and toasted pita bread.

Notes

Take the feta and cream cheese out of the fridge and let the soften at room temperature for about 30 minutes to get really creamy dip.
Make this dip ahead and refrigerate without toppings for up to three days.
Take out of the refrigerator 30 minutes before serving to make sure the dip is spreadable.
Whipped Feta can easily be made without a food processor. Mince or press garlic. Add all of the ingredients to a medium sized mixing bowl and use a hand mixer or a stiff whisk to combine.
