Instructions
Add the feta, Greek yogurt, roasted beets, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and fresh dill to the bowl of a food processor. Blend for 2 to 3 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed, until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
Taste and add a little more lemon juice for extra brightness or freshly ground black pepper if desired. The feta is typically salty enough that additional salt isn't necessary.
Transfer the whipped feta to a shallow serving bowl or plate. Garnish with extra fresh dill and chopped pistachios, if desired.
