Number Of Ingredients 10

½ red onion (sliced)
½ green bell pepper (sliced into rounds)
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes (about 3 ounces, halved)
2 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
3 to 4 fresh thyme sprigs (optional)
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
8 oz Block of quality feta cheese (do not crumble)
Fresh mint leaves for garnish ((optional) )
Crusty bread or pita chips to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees F and adjust a rack in the middle.
  • Arrange the onions, bell peppers, and cherry tomatoes at the bottom of a ramekin or oven-safe dish. Sprinkle with 1 tsp oregano, pinch red pepper flakes, and add some of the fresh thyme. Drizzle a bit of extra virgin olive oil.
  • Add the feta on top of the arranged veggies. Season the feta block with the remaining dried oregano, pinch of red pepper flakes and whatever remains of the fresh thyme. Drizzle a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil on the feta and make sure to brush the sides with some of the oil.
  • Place the baking dish on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 20 to 30 minutes (and if you like, you can stick it under the broiler very briefly to add color).
  • Serve with pita chips or toasted Italian bread.

KALE AND FETA SALAD



Kale and Feta Salad image

I've been making variations of this salad for years. I recently learned how to massage the kale and it makes a huge difference. I had a friend ask for my recipe and I realized I don't have one. This is my first attempt at writing a recipe, so please let me know how it works out! I like to change up the ingredients: sometimes a pear instead of an apple, cranberries instead of currants, Parmesan instead of feta, etc. Great as a side dish or by itself the next day for lunch!

SHEET-PAN BAKED FETA WITH BROCCOLINI, TOMATOES AND LEMON



Sheet-Pan Baked Feta With Broccolini, Tomatoes and Lemon image

When baked, feta gains an almost creamy texture, similar to goat cheese but with feta's characteristic tang. In this easy vegetarian sheet-pan dinner, broccolini (or broccoli), grape tomatoes and lemon slices roast alongside the feta until the broccolini crisp, the tomatoes burst and the lemon rinds soften. (Remember, broccolini has a tender, delicious stalk so only the bottom 1/2-inch needs to be trimmed.) Serve this dish over a pile of orzo for a complete meal. If you like, cut the broccolini, feta and lemon into bite-size pieces and toss with the orzo.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 bunch broccolini, ends trimmed, thick stalks split lengthwise, or broccoli, stalks trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved (about 2 cups)
1 small red onion, peeled, quartered and cut into 2-inch wedges
1 lemon, 1/2 cut into thin rounds and the remaining 1/2 left intact, for serving
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for serving
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 (6- to 8-ounce) blocks feta, cut into 1-inch slices
Cooked orzo or farro, for serving
1/2 cup fresh basil or cilantro leaves and fine stems, roughly chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees with a rack set in the lower third. On a sheet pan, combine the broccolini, tomatoes, onion and lemon slices with the olive oil and toss. Add cumin and red-pepper flakes, season with salt and pepper, and toss again until evenly coated. Nestle the feta slices into the vegetables. (It's OK if they break apart a little.)
  • Roast 15 to 20 minutes, stirring halfway through but leaving the feta in place, until the broccolini is charred at the tips, the stems are easily pierced with a fork and the tomato skins start to blister and break down.
  • Serve over orzo or farro. Drizzle with olive oil and serve with the remaining lemon half for squeezing. Top with fresh herbs, if using.

KALE SALAD WITH CRANBERRIES



Kale Salad with Cranberries image

I originally combined several recipes for kale salad and made several versions over the last 5 years. Despite numerous requests, I did not write it down until last year and have since perfected it. Whenever I take it to a potluck, I always take an empty bowl home.

Time 3h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup water
½ cup dried cranberries
1 tablespoon honey
16 ounces kale, stems removed and discarded, leaves torn into bite-sized pieces
1 red onion, chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon minced garlic
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
5 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
½ cup toasted walnuts, chopped

Steps:

  • Combine water and cranberries in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until cranberries are soft and liquid is syrupy, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in honey, remove from the heat, and allow to cool.
  • Put kale and red onion in an 8-quart pot or a very large bowl.
  • Whisk olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl; pour over the kale and stir well. Add feta cheese, walnuts, and moist cranberries with their syrup; stir until well combined. Cover and place in the refrigerator to marinate, stirring occasionally, until kale has wilted and shrunken in size, 3 to 8 hours.
  • To serve, transfer to a smaller serving bowl.
