Baked Feta Zoodles

Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 1- pint cherry tomatoes
  • 1 1/2 Tbsps olive oil divided
  • 3 fresh garlic cloves chopped
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 8-oz. block feta cheese
  • 2 large zucchini spiralized into zoodles
  • a large handful of fresh basil leaves picked and chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees f.
  • In a 13x9-inch baking dish, stir together the cherry tomatoes, 1 Tablespoon of olive oil, garlic, oregano, sea salt, and pepper.
  • Make some space in the center and add in your feta cheese. Drizzle the remaining 1/2 Tablespoon of olive oil on top of the feta.
  • Bake, until the cheese is soft and golden on top and tomatoes are roasted and bursting, about 30 minutes.
  • While the feta is baking, thoroughly wash your zucchini squash and trim off the ends.
  • Using a spiralizer, create zucchini noodles; aka zoodles. If you don't have a spiralizer, you can simply run a vegetable peeler down the length of the zucchini to create thin ribbons.
  • Remove the baking dish from the oven and add in your chopped fresh basil.
  • Using a fork, mash the feta and stir it together with the tomatoes to form a sauce as shown in the video.
  • Add your zoodles immediately to the still very hot baking dish, and toss well to combine with the sauce. Your hot tomato/feta sauce should warm your zucchini noodles nicely.
  • Garnish the pasta with extra fresh basil and freshly ground black pepper, if desired.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!
