Spicy feta dip with Mama Lil's peppers

This dip went quickly! Inspired by A Spicy Perspective, we traded the roasted red pepper for Mama Lil's peppers, but are positive you can't go wrong either way.

  • 2 cloves garlic, smashed
  • 1/3 cup olive oil

  • 1+ tsp. crushed red pepper
  • 1 cup Mama Lil's peppers, drained
  • Black Pepper to taste
  • Pita bread, cut into wedges or pita chips
  • Kalamata olives as garnish
Directions

  2. Drain and dice the peppers.
  3. Scoop the mixture into a bowl. Fold in the red pepper and ground black pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve
