This easy mini appetizer features sweet roasted garlic, salty olives and creamy feta baked in the oven until warm and served with pieces of crusty bread.
Select Pitted Kalamata Olives: Choose kalamata olives that have already been pitted. This means the hard stone inside the olive has been removed, making them ready to use in the recipe.
Add Sun-Dried Tomatoes: For an extra layer of flavor, toss in some sun-dried tomatoes along with the olives and cheese before baking.
Feta Cheese Choices: Use either a quarter of a standard block of feta cheese or an equivalent amount of crumbled feta, based on your preference.
Tomato Alternative: If olives aren’t your thing, you can substitute them with either cherry or grape tomatoes for a different but equally delicious twist.
Use a Small Oven-Safe Dish: Since this is a single serving appetizer, make sure to use a small dish that is safe for oven use. This ensures even cooking and perfect portion size.
