Super Bowl is fast approaching, and I waste no time planning my favorite part of that Sunday: the food.

Finger foods are the best for obvious reasons: They’re easy to make, and you can eat them without putting your beer down (#winning).

Wings, wraps, sliders, chips and, of course, dips.

Whether they’re hot and cheesy or cold and creamy, dips are the quintessential game-day snack.

With flavors of the Mediterranean, this creamy Greek feta dip is tangy, savory and bright.

It’s simple to make and can be prepared up to two days in advance, which I would recommend doing as it gives time for the flavors to meld together.

The harmonious mixture of feta, Greek yogurt, cream cheese, olive oil, lemon, dill and seasonings are whipped together, creating a luscious dip that’s irresistibly delicious.

But it doesn’t stop there. It’s finished off with a topping of chopped cucumbers and tomatoes, which add texture and crunch. You also can try mixing some right into the dip.

Other ingredients such as roasted red peppers, Kalamata olives or pepperoncinis (for a little spice) also can be added.

Along with pita chips, Greek feta dip is great served with vegetables, bread or toasted pita wedges.
