This was so great! I used a mix of rosemary, thyme, and oregano since I didn’t have enough of just rosemary – and I added lemon zest to the top. Thanks for the recipe!
Lisa Huff says
So glad you enjoyed, thank you!

I made this for a cheese and veggie platter. Very good flavor, I started with only 1 Tbl of rosemary, and thought that was plenty, sinice rosemary is strong flavor.. will keep this recipe to make again. Thanks!

Hi! I haven’t tried it with goat cheese because I prefer feta, but I’m sure it would be fine.
Jess says
Wondering if I could sub goat cheese in for the feta, have you ever tried that?
Kirsten says
Lisa,
I love simple dips and spreads–and the combination of lemon and feta I already enjoy. I bet with rosemary it’s even yummier! Added to my Awesome Veggie Apps and Snacks board.
Thanks!

I love rosemary and lemon together. This looks like a fancy spread for the party :) But super simple and easy, can’t ask for anything more!
