I have seen some AMAZING dips when at the local supermarket and you know me I get thinking and all of a sudden I'm wondering if I can convert these dips for the Thermomix and make them at home! Below is my take on a classic Red Capsicum, Feta & Cashew Dip!
Not having tasted the store bought version - this was still a HUGE hit in our house! Let me know what you think. :)

Katie says
Does the parmesan make a massive difference? Can I leave it out and it still taste fab? Thanks!
thermofun says
Katie to be honest I haven't made it without the parmesan! If you can't eat it from an allergy point of view yes I'm sure it would be ok but I'd reduce a fraction of the liquid too. If it is a matter of you getting to the shops to get parmesan, I'd hold off till then to make it. :)
Bianca says
How many days are your dips good for if kept in the fridge?
thermofun says
I would say up to 5 days Bianca. However they all freeze well too! :)
Tracy says
Yum! I roasted capsicum to change it up a little, was divine! Do you think it would freeze well?
thermofun says
yes it sure would freeze well Tracy :)
Kelly says
I substituted the red capsicum for a jar of chargrilled eggplant. Amazing!! Had it with home made seed crackers. Didn't last long!
Kacey says
So yum! Made it as per the recipe but instead of blitzing it on Turbo I just mixed it on Speed 7 for 3 seconds. This will be a regular in our home, really easy and tasty!!
Stacey says
This was really yummy. Substituted cashews for macadamia and yogurt for sour cream. Was really good on bagel chips. Thank for sharing.
thermofun says
Stacey great idea with the different nuts and sour cream! :)
H says
Yum!!! I actually substituted ricotta (made in the TMX) for the feta and yoghurt as I didn't have any and it was divine!!! I roasted the peppers first for some sweetness….
I can't stop eating it - thank you for the share.
thermofun says
oh the ricotta substitute is a great idea too! I'm pleased you liked it! Yes one of our favourites too! :)
Lisa says
This is a really nice dip, I used half a chilli and the kids loved it too. Thanks :)
