Spicy Baked Feta with Tomatoes & Thyme

Ingredients:

1 block feta cheese (about 8 oz)
Olive oil (I used the chili flavored olive oil from Brightland)
1 pinch dried oregano
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes (can use more for additional spice)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
1/2 cup chopped cherry tomatoes

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a small ovenproof baking dish, drizzle a small amount of olive oil on the bottom. Place feta cheese block on top of oil. Sprinkle with oregano, pepper flakes and thyme. Cover cheese and fill the sides of the dish with tomatoes. Drizzle a bit more oil on top of everything.

Bake in the oven until cheese and tomatoes soften (about 15 minutes). Serve with your favorite crackers, pita chips or bread. Enjoy!
