Ingredients

2 cups multi-colored cherry tomatoes

1 cup roasted red peppers, drained and diced 

1/2 cup halved kalamata olives 

3 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced  

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil 

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper  

One 8-ounce block feta 

2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil 

2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives  

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley 

Sliced sourdough bread or crackers, for serving  

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Place the tomatoes, roasted red peppers, olives and garlic in a 7-by-11-inch baking dish. Drizzle with the oil and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir to coat.
