Make whipped feta base

- I've estimated this recipe serves about 6, with 1/3 cup as the estimated serving size. However, the exact serving size and number of servings is up to you. It makes about 2 cups of dip, which you're free to divide up as you wish.
- If you don't have a food processor, some other options are to use a stand or hand mixer, immersion blender, or a regular blender.
