Hot Feta & Tomato Dip

The two times that I’ve made this dip for a party it was literally gone in 5 minutes. It’s delicious! However, I cannot stress enough that the quality of feta cheese will make all the difference in this dip. You need to buy REAL feta cheese–that means from a sheep, not a cow. Many grocery stores will sell it, but you have to read the labels carefully. Trader Joe’s has it and all specialty cheese shops should sell it. Real feta cheese is tangy and creamy, unlike “fake” feta which is dry and bland. So splurge on the good stuff, then give this dip a try. But get in there fast, because it’s sure to disappear quickly!
