Apple Cranberry Whipped Feta Dip

What You'll Need:

• 6 oz feta in brine, cut into small cubes
• 6 oz cream cheese, room temperature
• 1 to 1 1/2 tsp Potato Pizzazz Roasted Red Pepper Seasoning
• 2 tsp chopped fresh thyme leaves, plus a few sprigs for garnish
• 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 cup Apple Cranberry Preserves
• 2 tbsp toasted chopped pistachios
• Crackers and/or crostini, for serving

How To Make:

1. In a food processor, pulse the feta, Potato Pizzazz, and chopped thyme until the feta breaks into small crumbs. Add the cream cheese and pulse until combined. With the motor running, drizzle in the oil and blend until smooth and fluffy. Give it a taste and add a pinch more seasoning if you like.

2. Spread the dip into a shallow serving bowl, making a little well in the centre. Spoon the Apple Cranberry Preserves over top (warm them for 15 to 20 seconds in the microwave if you want them extra spoonable).

3. Sprinkle with pistachios and finish with thyme sprigs.

4. Serve with crackers and crostini alongside.

MAKE AHEAD: The whipped feta can be made up to 4 days ahead. Store in an airtight container in the fridge and add the preserves and pistachios just before serving.
