I love when people share a new recipe with me and when Aunt Becky shares a recipe with me I know it's going to be good - she gave me the recipe for Pasta Florentine, which is an absolute favorite of mine. So when she told me she had a recipe for a Layered Greek Dip I needed to try, I was very excited. This dip is just bursting with yummy greek flavors: hummus, feta, Kalamata olives, tomatoes, cucumbers. It makes a huge batch, perfect for parties or get togethers. Thanks Aunt Becky for another great recipe!

ReplyDeleteI have been looking for a dip like this for a New Year's party. This will be perfect! THANK YOU!
ReplyDeleteI added a layer of tatziki sauce to it. This was a hit! Delicious! (Since I made it ahead, I drained both the cucumbers and tomatoes so it wouldn't get watery.)
