Baked Feta

There are few party dishes easier than this. Inspired by some big fat Greek family I know (yes, they’re all really like the movie and it’s amazing) this dish can be a blank canvas for the season. Preheat your oven, top with whatever you have on hand (think about hitting the salty, sweet, savory and fresh elements) and each with crackers – or a fork.

1 block of feta
1 bunch grapes
Few sprigs of herbs (such as thyme or tarragon)
Zest of a lemon
Extra virgin olive oil

Preheat oven to 375° F. Place feta in an ovenproof vehicle, such as a pan or serving dish. Season with desired amount and type of ingredients and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden and bubbly. It won’t melt all the ways so don’t worry.

Serve with crackers or bread.

Reformation Tank Top // $38

Classic, not too expensive, kinda basic but worth it. Looks fancy but it’s not, also great for a casual date night.

Lulu and Georgia Adora Rug // $207

I’m in love with everything from Lulu & Georgia. I have the pink version of this rug and about a million more “hearted” in my cart. The best thing about an oriental rug is not that it can be passed down for generations or that it looks effortlessly chic (which is does!) but that it hides any stains and crumbs… just saying!

Butane Kitchen Torch // $49

This is an ultimate food stylist tip: a blow torch. It might seem intimating for a home cook but it's very easy to use. It helps adds a punch of color and charred-ness to anything and everything. You can also buy them at most hardware stores. Make sure you have a fire extinguisher on hand and be safe.
