Closet Cooking

Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Mediterranean Baked Feta

[heart_this] · Dec 27, 2021 · 4 Comments

Mediterranean Baked Feta

Feta that’s baked with olives, tomatoes, and oregano that ‘melts’ into crostini, crackers or chips that’s dipped into!

Feta is one of my favourite cheese’s and I almost always have a tub of it in my fridge. I like the tubs where there is a solid block of feta in brine and you can easily take out what you need and use it as a block or crumble it. Feta bakes really well; it melts on the inside but retains its shape on the outside! Once baked you can easily dip crackers into it, spread it on crostini or even mix it all up. This Mediterranean baked feta bakes the feta with tasty Mediterranean flavours/ingredients such as olives, sun-dried tomatoes, oregano and olive oil. I like to serve this ‘dip’ with spoons so that you can scoop some of the melted feta along with each of the ingredients onto crostini or crackers and it is simply amazing! This is a great appetizer or snack for any occasion!

    This sounds like it would be excellent stirred into pasta with maybe some extra olive oil!

    This is a wonderful recipe. Super easy prep and absolutely delicious. I served it with Spanish chorizo, fresh pita bread, and dry white wine.
