Can we just talk about tomatoes for a minute? I mean, have they ever been this sweet before? Seriously, we are popping them back like candy in this household.
Speaking of candy, we treated ourselves to a bag of sour grapefruits the other night. I mean, they are grapefruit flavoured so it’s basically like eating fruit, right? Back to tomatoes – they are just perfect with this creamy dip. And with back to school season in full effect, we could all use some easy and healthy snacks and apps up our sleeves, am I right?
I’ve used Castello blue cheese in this recipe as it is a nice mild cheese that is readily available in your local grocery store. In full disclosure, Castello has generously sponsored this post in exchange for a recipe featuring their product. But as always, we would never accept a deal if it’s not something we would normally use in a recipe of our own.
I’ve already told you just how delicious this dip is with the tomatoes right now, but it would be just as delicious with some cut up cucumbers, carrots, or your favourite crackers.
All you need is a food processor and your good to go. Easy as pie – now speaking of pie, this dip would serve as the perfect appetizer to our zucchini pie. So grab a tomato and get dipping!

Note
While this dip is great with tomatoes, it is also delicious with cut up cucumber, carrots, and crackers. Thin it out with a little water and it would also make a great salad dressing. If you're not a fan of blue cheese, goat cheese would make a great substitute.
