Try this healthy baked feta potatoes recipe — creamy, golden, and Mediterranean-inspired. One pan, 45 minutes, and loads of flavor.
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs (700 g) baby potatoes, halved or quartered
- 1 block (7 oz / 200 g) feta cheese
- 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Salt to taste (go easy — feta’s already salty)
- Fresh basil or parsley, for garnish
- Optional additions: sliced red onion, olives, or lemon zest for brightness.
Instructions
- Preheat and PrepPreheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse and cut the potatoes so they’re roughly even in size — smaller pieces roast more evenly.In a large baking dish (9×13-inch works perfectly), combine the potatoes, cherry tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, oregano, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Toss until everything is glossy and evenly coated.
- Add the FetaNestle the block of feta right in the center of the dish. Drizzle a touch more olive oil over it — this helps it soften and brown beautifully while roasting.
- Roast Until GoldenBake for 35–40 minutes, stirring the potatoes once halfway through. You’ll know it’s ready when the potatoes are fork-tender, the tomatoes have burst, and the feta has turned slightly golden around the edges
- Stir and ServeOnce out of the oven, gently stir everything together. The warm feta melts into a creamy, tangy dressing that coats the potatoes perfectly.Top with fresh basil or parsley and serve immediately — or let it cool for meal prep containers.
