What a great combo of two cheeses that usually don’t need any help on their own! The red pepper would be a great kick to the tang of the feta, too. Yum!
I love the combination of cream cheese (so smooth) and feta (so tangy) – adding red pepper flakes and lemon juice makes this dip just perfect in my book.
Your mention of feta sure did catch my attention! These look and sound absolutely delicious and so easy to make too!
This is my kind of appetizer! So easy and delicious. The perfect party snack!
I love this! Cream cheese + delicious thing on a cracker is one of my favorite party snacks.
