  • Food processor

Ingredients
  

For the Whipped Feta and Mascarpone Dip:

  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 2 large pepperoncini, stems and seeds removed
  • 8 ounces feta cheese, cut in one inch cubes
  • 2 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp. fresh oregano
  • ½ tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
  • ¼ cup mascarpone cheese
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • zest of one lemon

For the Crudite':

  • 1 head purple endive leaves
  • 1 bunch of carrots, halved
  • 1 cup sugar snap peas, trimmed
  • 8 radishes, halved
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes

Instructions
 

  • To the food processor, add the garlic, and process until minced.
  • Then add the pepperoncini and oregano and process them until they're minced.
  • Next, add the feta, lemon juice, mascarpone, and red pepper flakes. Process until the feta is broken down and combined with the other ingredients. Finally, add the olive oil and process until the dip is whipped and creamy.
  • Serve right away, or chill until serving. If the dip gets too thick while it chills, just stir in some milk until the consistency is thinner. Serve with the cut up vegetables.
