Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes and Vegetables

  • 1.5 lbs (700g) baby potatoes, halved or quartered
  • 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Cheese and Seasonings

  • 1 block (7 oz/200g) feta cheese
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • Salt to taste (go easy as feta is salty)

Garnish

  • Fresh basil or parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven heats, wash the baby potatoes and cut them into halves or quarters based on their size. This ensures even cooking and tenderness.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large baking dish, combine the potatoes, halved cherry tomatoes, minced garlic, olive oil, dried oregano, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Toss well to coat all ingredients evenly with the seasoning and oil.
  3. Add the Feta: Place the block of feta cheese in the center of the baking dish, nestling it among the potatoes and tomatoes. Drizzle a little olive oil over the feta to help it soften and bake beautifully.
  4. Roast Until Golden: Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes. Stir the potatoes once halfway through to ensure even roasting. The dish is ready when the potatoes are golden and tender, the tomatoes have burst, and the feta is soft and slightly browned on top.
  5. Stir and Serve: Remove the baking dish from the oven and stir the softened feta into the potatoes and tomatoes to create a creamy, tangy sauce that coats everything. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired. Serve warm or allow it to cool for a healthy meal prep option.

Notes

  • ✅ Use Waxy Potatoes – Baby potatoes, red potatoes, or fingerlings hold their shape well and roast beautifully without falling apart.
  • ✅ Don’t Skip the Stir – Mixing everything together after baking transforms the feta into a creamy dressing that elevates the dish.
  • ✅ Make It Your Own – Add red onions, olives, or a squeeze of lemon juice after baking for a Mediterranean twist and extra flavor complexity.
