- 1 cup Mixed Olives (pitted, roughly chopped) Choose your favorites!
- ½ cup Sun-Dried Tomatoes (roughly chopped, preferably in olive oil)
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil (for drizzling)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (such as thyme or basil, finely chopped)
- ½ teaspoon Chili Flakes Optional for some heat
- to taste Salt and Pepper
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a ceramic or glass baking dish, place the feta cheese in the center.
- Scatter the chopped olives and sun-dried tomatoes around the feta.
- Drizzle olive oil over the cheese and sprinkle with fresh herbs. For those who enjoy a bit of kick, add the chili flakes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Baking
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the feta is soft and slightly golden on the edges.
Serving
- Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Serve it warm with crusty bread or pita chips.
Notes
If you wish to switch out the feta, goat cheese is an excellent alternative. Keep an eye on the bake; if the feta starts to brown too quickly, cover it gently with foil. Make sure your feta is submerged in oil for that creamy texture.
