We’ve been roasting what feels like a million red peppers over the last week…and at this point I almost feel like I’m becoming one. I definitely smell like one. Aside from canning and freezing, I found one more amazing way to use those sweet red seducers: in this roasted red pepper feta dip. It’s an amazing easy and healthy Mediterranean appetizer with roasted peppers that can add something “extra” to every dinner.
It’s ready in around 5 minutes, you need six ingredients and once you have it you can store it in the fridge and enjoy throughout the week.
I’ve been having it with toasted bread / crackers, on the side with salads, in wraps, on cucumbers for a quick and healthy snack and it’s simply divine.
The red pepper feta dip goes pretty much with any Mediterranean-style bowl or grilling recipe.
You can use it as a spread for your toast. It would also do amazing in this Mediterranean pita I shared recently.

Roasted Red Pepper Feta Dip Ingredients
Roasted Red Peppers. You will need cored, peeled and roasted red peppers. I used sweet pointed red peppers, but bell peppers will work just as well. You can see how I deseed, roast and peel my red peppers here. For some spice, you can throw in some jalapenos or chili peppers too.
Tomato. You just need one small ripe tomato for this recipe.
Garlic. Cannot skip garlic in here.
Feta cheese. Or any type of white cheese you like and have available.
Parsley or other herbs. Mint or basil will also be great in this dip. I did basil this year.
Salt and olive oil. Make sure to add the salt to taste as the last thing, once the dip is ready.
How To Make Roasted Red Pepper Feta Dip
Add all ingredients, but salt to a blender or a bowl and use a hand blender.
Blend to desired consistency. You can leave the dip a bit chunky or make it very smooth. It entirely depends on your preference.
I prefer mine somewhat in the middle, so I blend the ingredients until almost smooth.
The last thing you will do is add salt to taste and transfer the dip to a more appropriate container.
And that’s it, you’ve got your delicious red pepper feta dip ready to eat!
How To Store The Red Pepper Feta Dip
The red pepper feta dip is great for meal prep and will stay good in the fridge for between 3-4 days.
Make sure to keep it in an airtight container, so that the smell doesn’t take over your fridge and enjoy as you wish!
