Creamy Garden Spread
- 2 6 ounce cartons plain Greek yogurt or 1 recipe Yogurt Cheese (see tip)
- 3/4 cup shredded carrot
- 1 teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel
- 2 tablespoons snipped fresh flat-leaf (Italian) parsley
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
1. In a small bowl combine yogurt, carrot, lemon peel, parsley, and feta cheese, if using. (Note: If using feta cheese, omit salt.) Cover and chill up to 24 hours. Stir before serving.
2. Use this as a pizza topper, a sandwich spread, or a veggie dip.
- You can replace the purchased Greek yogurt with easy-to-make yogurt cheese. When making yogurt cheese, use a brand of yogurt that contains no gums, gelatin, or fillers. These ingredients may prevent the whey from separating from the curd to make cheese.
