Mediterranean Feta Bake

Here’s an elevated version of the viral feta bake that used only tomatoes and seasoning. I highly recommend giving this one a try if you are a fan of the original. It’s great over pasta (I had mine over orzo) or as an appetizer with pita or naan and it’s extremely easy to prepare!

Step 1

1.) Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

5.) Drizzle olive oil over the top of the feta and lightly on top of the veggies.

Step 6

6.) Juice half a lemon right on top.

Step 7

7.) Sprinkle with zataar and fresh ground salt and pepper.
