Made for the FYC Tag Game & I added 1 ingredient. Garlic seemed MIA to me, so I added it & it rewarded me by shining brightly in your recipe. I was creative in the assembly. I wanted 4 individual servings so DH & I would ea have 1 for 2 nights, so I opted to use ramekins. They worked great & made assembly even faster & easier than expected. I did not use the full amt of olive oil as the feta cheese was jarred in it. The servings plated easily & baking the feta & tomatoes produced a fair amt of moisture that had a KILLER AMT OF FLAVOR. I suggest this be served w/baguette rolls so none of that flavor is wasted. This would make an ideal side-dish for tomato lovers. Thx for sharing the recipe w/us.
