Baked Feta

A mini-vacation to the Greek Islands! Share this with your neighbors at your next campground potluck. I like to toss a few kalamata olives over the top after baking - as a delicious garnish.

One 8 oz. brick fresh feta cheese (unflavored)
Olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup slivered yellow onion
¼ cup slivered green/red pepper
¼ cup chopped ripe tomato
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Black pepper, to taste

Heat oven to 400°. Lightly oil a small, shallow, baking dish. Slice feta, creating three patty-size slabs. Overlap cheese in center of dish. Sprinkle garlic, onion, pepper and tomato over cheese. Top with oregano and black pepper. Drizzle a few Tablespoons of olive oil over all. Bake for 30 minutes, or until browned and bubbly.

Let rest 5 minutes and serve with sliced French bread or crackers.

Serves 4 as an appetizer.
