Excited to share another recipe I created in partnership with My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3, only in theaters September 8! This BOUYOURDI DIP aka GREEK BAKED FETA + PEPPERS DIP is one I rediscovered in Greece this summer. I used creamy #PresidentCheese Feta for all the good flavor.  Find the full recipe at the link in bio.  #MyBigFatGreekWedding3

Everyone has tried the baked feta trend by this point but this is next level. We created this dip in Greece this summer after we had it a taverna in Athens. One of our favorite cheesy appetizers plus its low carb.

Where does Bouyourdi Dip come from? The dish originated in Thessaloniki (Northern Greece). Its a basic appetizer or meze of tomatoes, peppers, Kasseri cheese and feta cheese.

Kasseri cheese is a Greek cheese not easily found in other locations so you can sub in mozzarella – shredded or sliced. I used banana peppers here but any type of pepper is acceptable. Be generous with the olive oil and with the dried oregano.

Thank you for swinging by Hungry Happens! If you create this dish or any other from our site, we would greatly appreciate you taking the time to comment and rate the recipe. LOVE YOUR LIFE!
