Greek feta baked to perfection with herbs, olives, semi-sundried tomatoes and extra virgin olive oil. Serve with fresh bread or crusty mini-baguette slices and it's an appetiser everyone will dig into!
I don't know about you but feta is my all-time favourite cheese. I could crumble it over eggs, add it to a frittata and I would go as far as just taking a bite out of a block! I'm embarrassed to say it and I know that sounds ridiculous but that just proves how much I love it.

Baked Feta with Olives
INGREDIENTS
150g block feta
1 cup pitted olives
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 cup semi-sundried tomatoes
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/4 tsp dried rosemary
freshly ground pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
Begin by preheating the oven to 180C fan-forced.
Add feta to the baking dish and sprinkle the herbs.
Add olives and semi-sundried tomatoes around the feta.
In a small dish combine EVOO crushed garlic, oregano, thyme and pepper.
Pour the mixture over all the ingredients.
Bake for 15 minutes.
Serve immediately - must be eaten warm.
Garnish with finely chopped parsley and serve with crusty bread or crusty mini-baguette slices. Optional to add chilli flakes for an extra kick!
When do you add the oil?
Does the olive oil go in with the olives and semi-sundried tomatoe? Or is it just served on the side?
