Place the Feta cheese, roasted red pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, black pepper, and either cayenne pepper or crushed red pepper flakes in a food processor or blender.
Blend until the mixture is fairly smooth and until you can’t see large chunks of Feta. Don’t over blend, as you will still want some texture.
Scoop the dip into a serving bowl and sprinkle with red pepper flakes for an extra kick.
Bake up our Furlani breadsticks or bread knots, top with this dip and delight your taste buds!

Store the pesto in an airtight container to keep fresh and slow oxidation.
Roast pine nuts on a non-stick pan on medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes, tossing once halfway through. Remove from heat and let it cool.
In the food processor, add the basil, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, and garlic, then pulse until finely ground. Slowly pour in a steady stream of olive oil while the food processor is still running until smooth, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.

Halve the eggplants lengthwise and brush it with olive oil.
Wrap in tin foil and bake for 40 minutes or until the eggplant is tender throughout. Let is cool down for a few minutes before scooping out the flesh.
Place the flesh in a strainer to get rid of any excess liquid.
Once drained, place the eggplant flesh, garlic, lemon juice, tahini, olive oil, and salt in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
Transfer this dip to a serving bowl and sprinkle the chopped parsley and smoked paprika on top. Now it’s ready to be served with our baked garlic breadsticks.
