Why You'll Love it!
This grinder feta dip is BEYOND easy to make! It comes together in under 10
This mouthwatering dip combines the creamy richness of feta cheese with a vibrant medley of flavors and textures.
You'll love this easy appetizer because the tangy, crumbly feta pairsperfectly with the crisp crunch of red onion and roasted red peppers.
The banana peppers add a subtle kick of heat, while the salami introduces a savory depth that perfectly complements the creamy base.
Coat everything in a zesty garlic salad dressing, and you’ve got a dip that’s both refreshing and indulgent.
It literally tastes like a grinder sub but in dip form!
Each bite offers a burst of contrasting yet harmonious flavors, making it an irresistible choice for any gathering.
Whether you’re hosting a casual get-together or an elegant soirée, this dip promises to be a standout hit, sparking conversation and delight with every savory scoop.
I recommend serving it with thick crackers or toasted baguette rounds.
Ingredients & Substitutions
- Feta Cheese: Feta adds so much flavor to this dish so I really wouldn't substitute if you didn't have to. Plus, the crumbles give everything the perfect texture.
- Red Onion: If you don't like red onion, you could swap it for green scallions, white onions, or yellow onions. Or you could use my Pink Pickled Onions if you had some on hand.
- Banana Peppers: Swap pickled jalapenos for banana peppers if you're looking for a substitution.
- Marinated Roasted Red Peppers: If you didn't have marinated roasted red peppers, you could also use a jar of the pre-minced pimento peppers. Or fresh bell peppers if you wanted more crunch.
- Salami: Vegetarian? Leave out the salami or swap it for marinated mushrooms. You could also use ham or another finely chopped italian coldcut.
- Italian Dressing: I love using Garlic Expressions because I think it's the best italian dressing. But you could use whatever brand you love the most.
