This green onion dip is the kind of thing you make once
and never stop making.
The Dip I Always Have in My Fridge
This is one of those no-measuring, no-stress recipes passed down from my mom. It barely feels like a recipe — just green onion, creamy feta, and tangy labneh — but it somehow turns into the one thing everyone fights over.
You can serve it with bread, crackers, veggies, or just eat it with a spoon straight from the bowl (been there). I’ve tried other versions over the years, but nothing beats this one — it’s simple, satisfying, and endlessly adaptable.

What You’ll Need (and How to Adapt It)
- Green onion – finely chopped
- Creamy feta – the kind that smashes easily
- Labneh – or swap with Greek yogurt, cream cheese, or even sour cream
Variations:
You can absolutely make this a green onion dip with cream cheese, Greek yogurt, or sour cream — just expect a thicker or softer dip depending on your choice. Cottage cheese works too, and herbs, chili flakes, or garlic powder are great if you’re into experimenting. I just keep it classic.
How to Make This Simple Green Onion Dip
- Finely chop the green onion.
- In a bowl, smash it together with the feta using a fork.
- Add the labneh and stir until creamy and smooth.
- Taste and adjust — add more onion, a bit of salt, or extra labneh to get your perfect texture.
How to Serve & Store Your Homemade Dip
This dip is perfect cold, straight from the fridge. Serve it with crackers, chips, pita, or next to roasted veggies or grilled meats. It also works as a sandwich spread.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
