Goat cheese has been a staple in the Mediterranean diet for centuries, and for good reason. It's a delicious and versatile cheese that can be used in a variety of dishes, from salads to pizzas to dips. This particular dip was inspired by a recipe that I found in a cookbook from the region. I've adapted it slightly to make it even more delicious and easy to make. The result is a creamy, flavorful dip that is sure to please everyone at your next party.
