Easy Greek Dip Recipe
This Greek Dip brings a Mediterranean twist to the classic 7 layer dip recipe . Grab some pita chips and dig into this fresh and delicious dip!
With Christmas coming next week, New Year’s Eve quickly approaching, and the Super Bowl coming up before we know it, I have nothing but APPETIZERS on the brain. I’m talking wings , nachos , meatballs , and DIPS galore! There are just never enough snacks around the holidays; the more the better! 7 Layer Dip has always been a staple at our house when appetizers are on hand ( remember that Hot 7 Layer Dip Skillet I made last year? ), so I switched things up and made a fresh version.
This 7 Layer Greek Dip is a fun and simple twist on a classic appetizer , and I couldn’t love it more. I love the freshness of Mediterranean ingredients, so why not throw them all together in dip form? It’s a little bit sweet, a little bit spicy, plenty of cheese, and a whole lot more. Hummus , yogurt, feta, tomatoes, olives, peppers, and walnuts…it’s like a salad, but it’s a dip…so that makes it healthy too, right? I guarantee if you snack on this instead of wings while watching football, you’ll feel pretty healthy.
This Greek Layer Dip is an absolute must make! I just love the mix of flavors, how easy it is to put together (cold dip means no cooking!), and how it’s gone in minutes. Serve with pita chips and start eating!
This fresh Greek Dip is the perfect 7 layer dip recipe for any occasion. Layers of hummus, olives, yogurt, cheese, and more make one tasty party appetizer!
7 Layer Dip Recipe
A classic 7 layer dip is more on the Tex-Mex side, filled with refried beans, guacamole, sour cream, cheese, and more. Obviously I LOVE that recipe, but you can never have too many dip recipes. A Mediterranean inspired 7 Layer Greek Dip seemed like a fun option!
Greek 7 Layer Dip Ingredients:
- Greek Yogurt
- Hummus (we used red pepper hummus)
- Feta Cheese
- Kalamata Olives
- Cherry Tomatoes
- Red Peppers
- Walnuts
We have come up with our favorite Mediterranean ingredients to include in this Greek Layer Dip recipe, but the possibilities are endless! You could add garbanzo beans, artichokes, avocado, any flavor of hummus you like, the list goes on and on. Make it your own and wow your friends. It will be gone in no time, trust me! It’s the perfect appetizer to have while socializing at Christmas, ringing in the New Year, or cheering for your favorite football team. Tailgate food is the absolute best food if you ask me!
How to Make 7 Layer Greek Dip
I love hot dips , but cold dip recipes do have a couple things I like more: no cooking or heating or trying to keep the dip warm! This Greek Dip is SO easy to make because there is zero cooking, zero use of the stove or oven, and zero time commitment (well, almost no time). As long as you have the ingredients on hand, you can put this 7 layer dip together and have it ready to serve so fast!
All you have to do is layer the ingredients in a dish, and done! Here’s the order I recommend for this 7 layer dip:
- Hummus
- Yogurt
- Olives
- Tomatoes
- Peppers
- Feta
- Walnuts
You want nice thick layers of hummus and yogurt on the bottom, the chunky ingredients (tomatoes, olives, peppers) in the middle, and then sprinkle on the feta crumbles and chopped walnuts to top it off. Dig in with pita chips and make sure you get all 7 layers in every bite!
Don’t forget to make this super fresh and tasty 7 Layer Greek Dip for your next party, get together, or lazy “I don’t want to cook, I just want to eat something really delicious” moment. Dips are an acceptable meal replacement, right? Anyways, I know you’re going to love this fun 7 layer dip recipe, and I can’t wait for you to try it!

This Essential Grocery List is an absolute life saver for my family on the busy weeks. When I started this journey to learn how to cook, I quickly realized that the first step in cooking is having staple ingredients on hand. I want to avoid having to run out to the grocery store every single time I prepare a new recipe. Having a well-stocked pantry has made my life in the kitchen so much simpler, because when it’s time to cook, I have what I need.
Essential Grocery List
It’s so helpful to have a basic grocery list to help me remember which foods to buy at the store. This food shopping list is my go-to!
It’s better to stock up on things like grains, seasonings and spices, baking essentials, oils, condiments, canned and frozen foods, etc. so I can just grab them when I need them. These things have a long shelf life , so I keep them in my kitchen for convenience.
However, I do have to go to the supermarket sometimes, and there’s a way to make that trip easy and hassle-free: I keep a grocery list! If I go in blindly, I’ll leave with things I don’t need, and nothing that actually helps me prepare a good meal.
In the list below, I’ve compiled everything I always have on my stock-up grocery list.
I’ve got you covered! I created an easy grocery list filled with all of the essentials. Plus there’s a free printable version that you can take with you to the grocery store. It has everything you need to stock your pantry, your freezer, and your refrigerator.

What to Buy at the Grocery Store
This is the perfect grocery list filled with all the basics and essentials. It should help get you going if you’re new to cooking, or if you’re just left staring helplessly at an empty pantry and don’t know how to fill it.

So print out our easy grocery list, stock up your pantry and fridge, and you’ll be cooking in no time!
