Feta Cheese Appetizer

Ingredients:
4 oz cream cheese, softened
4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
Cottage cheese or greek yogurt (optional)
2  teaspoons green onion, chopped
1/4  teaspoon  black pepper
1/2  cup  chopped fresh dill

tomatoes
olives
cucumbers
or other fresh vegetables


Directions:
In a medium bowl thoroughly blend feta cheese, cream cheese, green onion, black pepper and fresh dill with an electric mixer. If the feta is very dry and the mixture doesn't hold together well, add some greek yogurt or cottage cheese. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Cover, and refrigerate at least 4 hours.
With wet hands form little balls or use a cookie baller to make the perfect round shape. Roll each ball in chopped dill.
Serve with crackers, olives, tomatoes or cucumber slices.
