For the Dip

8 ounces Feta cheese, organic block
½ cup pesto sauce, homemade or store-bought Use homemade for fresher taste.
1 tablespoon raw honey, organic For sweetness.
½ cup Greek yogurt, plain Can substitute with vegetable stock.
1-2 cups roasted herb tomatoes See roasting instructions below.
Chopped walnuts, toasted For topping.
Honey, for drizzle Adds sweetness on top.
Fresh or dried parsley For garnish.

Instructions

Roast the Tomatoes

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cut your tomatoes in half and place them on a baking sheet.
Drizzle some olive oil and sprinkle salt and pepper over the tomatoes.
Roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes or until soft and slightly caramelized. Set aside to cool.

Make the Feta Dip

In a food processor, combine the feta cheese, pesto sauce, raw honey, and Greek yogurt.
Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy, adding a little vegetable stock if you prefer a thinner consistency.

Assembly

Transfer the whipped feta mixture to a serving bowl.
Top it with the roasted tomatoes and sprinkle chopped walnuts over the top.
Drizzle with honey and add parsley for color.

Notes

For additional flavor, consider adding garlic or lemon juice. For a spicy kick, add red pepper flakes. To enhance creaminess, blend in some cream cheese with the Greek yogurt. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days.
