Method
 

  1. Core and dice Roma tomatoes into small cubes. Place in a bowl with chopped basil, minced garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and salt. Toss to combine and let marinate 10 minutes.
  2. In a food processor, combine feta, cream cheese, sour cream, minced garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil. Blend 3–4 minutes until smooth and creamy. Adjust salt to taste.
  3. Spread cheese mixture evenly into a shallow serving dish.
  4. Spoon marinated bruschetta topping over the cheese mixture and spread evenly.
  5. Garnish with chopped basil, red pepper flakes, and Parmesan cheese. Serve with bread, crackers, or pita chips.

Notes

For best flavor, prepare the bruschetta topping 10–15 minutes in advance to let the tomatoes marinate. You can substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream for a lighter version, or use goat cheese instead of feta. Serve with toasted baguette slices, pita chips, or crackers.
