Directions

Method written by CompKitchen from the ingredient list. Not the original author's method, not kitchen-tested.

1. Add the crumbled feta and whole milk ricotta to a food processor or large bowl and process or mash until mostly smooth.

2. Add the smashed garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, chopped thyme, dried oregano, crushed red pepper and black pepper, then blend until creamy.

3. Drain the jarred roasted red pepper, add it to the mixture and pulse until combined but still slightly textured.

4. Taste the dip and adjust the black pepper and crushed red pepper as desired.

5. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover and chill for at least 30 minutes so the flavors blend.

6. If making pita chips, cut the pita bread into wedges, arrange on a baking sheet and bake until crisp and lightly golden, about 8 minutes.

7. Top the dip with the Kalamata olives just before serving and serve with the pita wedges or chips.
