Dear Feta Cheese,I love you! I love you in a block or crumbled up. I love you all alone, in a salad and in a spinach pie (amongst other things). I especially love you stuffed in an olive to go with a spicy bloody- mary! I enjoy your saltiness and creaminess, and I especially enjoy how versatile you can be. You, Feta Cheese, make me a very happy lady when you're in town. Please come back soon, you're always welcome at the Klebba residence.
Love, NICHe in the KITCHe
Ingredients & Recipe:
- 1 (8 ounce) chunk feta cheese (I love Bulgarian feta the best)
- olive oil (optional)
- 2 Tbls. crushed red pepper flakes
- dried oregano, garlic powder and fresh ground pepper
Preheat your oven to about 300 degrees. Set the feta block on a small oven-safe dish. Drizzle the cheese with a little olive oil (about 1-2 Tbls.), and cover pretty liberally (or to your likings) with pepper flakes, oregano, garlic powder and pepper.
Bake the seasoned cheese, uncovered, for about 10 minutes, until it is soft. Serve with a variety of crackers or veggie chunks.
You Could Also Try...
- Sprinkle whatever dried herbs you love on top of the feta before baking for a more personalized taste!
- This is a super easy appetizer to take to a party; do everything ahead of time except bake it once you get to your destination.
