Ingredients

• 1 cup (8 oz / 226g) cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup (approx. 150g) crumbled Feta cheese
• 1 cup (240ml) chicken broth
• 3 tbsp (45ml) olive oil
• 1 tsp (6g) salt
• ½ tsp (1g) black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 tsp (3g) garlic powder
• 2 tsp (1g) dried parsley
Instructions
1. Directions
2. In the stainless steel insert of your Instant Pot, combine the broccoli florets, softened cream cheese, crumbled Feta cheese, chicken broth, and olive oil.
3. Sprinkle in the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried parsley. Stir everything together until well-combined.
4. Secure the lid on the Instant Pot, ensuring the steam release handle is set to the ‘Sealing’ position. Select the ‘Manual’ or ‘Pressure Cook’ button and set the timer for 20 minutes on high pressure.
5. Once the cooking cycle is complete, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes. Afterward, carefully move the steam release handle to the ‘Venting’ position to release any remaining steam.
6. Open the lid and stir the mixture vigorously to create a creamy consistency. For a smoother dip, use an immersion blender. Transfer to a serving bowl or a jar with a tight lid for storage in the refrigerator.
