Roasted Red Pepper and Feta Dip

We’re coming up on Super Bowl Sunday, so here’s a dip recipe for you that is figure friendly, quick and painless to make, and it’s a party in your mouth!

Roasted Red Pepper and Feta Dip
Serves 16 (3TB each serving)
4 Weight Watchers Points Plus per serving
  • 7 oz roasted red peppers packed in water, drained
  • 1 pound(s) 1/3 less-fat cream cheese two 8-oz blocks, softened, cut up
  • 4 oz reduced-fat feta cheese crumbled
  • 1 clove(s) (medium) garlic clove(s) peeled
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • 3 Tbsp dill fresh, chopped

In a food processor, roasted peppers, cream cheese, feta cheese, garlic and black pepper; process until smooth. Add chopped dill; pulse until evenly distributed.

Scrape mixture into a serving bowl; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour (or up to 5 days) to firm up slightly and for flavors to blend.

This recipe can be cut in half to serve 8, but it keeps so well (up to 5 days refrigerated) that it makes sense to make the whole batch to have on hand for unexpected holiday guests. Serve with pita wedges, whole grain crisp breads or crackers and/or raw vegetables

You literally dump it all in your food processor and give it a good whirl...now that's easy!
