Creamy Feta-Red Wine Vinegar Dressing

I was looking for a yummy homemade Greek dressing tonight and found this one on a favorite foodie blog.  It was very easy to whip together and tossed very nicely with romaine lettuce.  I added grilled  Rosemary Balsamic chicken, cucumber, tomato, kalamata olives and a few pieces of crispy pita bread on the side.


Dressing:
4 ounces (115g) feta cheese
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon finely-chopped fresh thyme or oregano
2 tablespoons flavorful olive oil
5 tablespoons water
salt and freshly-ground black pepper

1. Mash the feta with the vinegar and herbs with a fork until fairly smooth.

2. Mix in the olive oil and water, until smooth. Because feta cheese can vary in moisture, add more oil, vinegar, or water, if desired.

3. Season with pepper and salt, to taste.

Storage: This dressing will keep for four days in the refrigerator.
