Mint-Feta Sauce
This sauce is very flavorful due to the combination of the mint and feta. It’s the perfect accompaniment for some of your chicken and meat dishes. I was considering that it could be a great sauce to add to fish tacos!
If you like feta, your taste-buds will enjoy these flavors and have you mumbling…”MMMM” during your first taste. Days after grilling these kebabs and they had been long ago eaten, I’ve been craving this sauce. This quick and easy recipe is featured with Grilled Greek Chicken Kebabs from the newer Everyday Food: Fresh Flavor Fast
(from the Kitchens of Martha Steward Living)1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled feta
1/4 cup plain yogurt (I used non-fat)
1 cup packed fresh mint leaves, plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
Blend feta, yogurt, mint, and red-wine vinegar in a food processor until smooth. Serve as a dipping sauce or in tacos!

Natasha – I wouldn’t have thought about the mint and yogurt pairing until whipping up this sauce. The sauce is really a “good thing”. :)
Thanks Emily!
Tammy – Thank you for a great idea! Will definitely have to try it with lamb too.
Denise: Doesn’t it sound like a winning pair (mint and feta)!?
Tania – This sauce has prompted me to start growing my own mint!
That looks great!!!!
Mint and yogurt go so well together; looks refreshing!
It would match up nicely with grilled lamb as well. A perfect dish for the Passover/Easter season.
Oh, I really have to try this! Love feta, love mint and can’t wait to see how they taste combined in a sauce!
My fateher loves mint too, this recipe is useful to me ;-)
