    One of my go-to appetizers for entertaining is a veggie-filled dip. They're not too fussy, everyone loves them, and you can usually make them ahead of time. While a warm and gooey artichoke dip is a must in the winter, summer calls for a lighter, chilled dip full of fresh ingredients, like this whipped feta artichoke dip!

    Of course, any good dip needs cheese, and a nice tangy cheese you can enjoy cold (instead of melted) like feta is just lovely in a cold dip. It adds just enough savory, salty flavor to keep things interesting, and goes perfectly with freshly steamed Ocean Mist Farms artichokes, garlic, lemon, and basil. It's like a summer flavor dream.

    Like all of my dips, I lightened up this whipped feta artichoke dip with nonfat plain Greek yogurt. It's my secret weapon in the kitchen to add a rich creaminess to party food while also keeping it nice and light with a secret protein boost.

    • Prep Time: 10 minutes
    • Cook Time: 30 minutes
    • Total Time: 40 minutes
    • Yield: 8 servings 1x
    • Category: appetizer
    • Method: stovetop
    • Cuisine: American

    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 2 large Ocean Mist Farms artichokes
    • 2 lemons, divided
    • 2 cloves garlic, smashed
    • 1 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
    • ⅔ cup feta cheese, crumbled
    • ¼ cup fresh basil leaves
    • Pinch sea salt
    • Pinch freshly cracked pepper
    • Olive oil and additional feta, for serving (optional)

    Instructions

    1. Prepare your artichokes for steaming by trimming sharp tips off of leaves and trimming stems. Cut 1 lemon in half and rub one half over artichokes. Place in a steamer basket.
    2. Squeeze the other half in the bottom of a large pot. And add enough water to cover the bottom, but not touch the steamer basket. Cover the pot and steam artichokes until tender 30-45 minutes. Cool artichokes in the fridge (I like to steam mine the day before).
    3. Once artichokes have cooled completely, cut them in half and remove chokes and hearts, reserving leaves for serving.
    4. Roughly chop artichoke hearts and add them to the bowl of a food processor with the innermost, very tender baby yellow leaves. Add juice of the remaining lemon, garlic, yogurt, feta, basil, salt and pepper. Pulse until combined, leaving just a little bit of texture.
    5. Scoop dip into a serving dish. Top with a drizzle of olive oil and additional feta cheese, if desired and serve with artichoke leaves, crostini, and crudités.
