Baked Feta Cheese is a warm, creamy dish originating from Mediterranean cuisine, particularly Greek traditions. This dish features a block of feta cheese, often paired with cherry tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, and herbs such as oregano or thyme, baked until the cheese softens and develops a slightly golden crust. Feta, made from sheep or goat’s milk, is a nutrient-dense food, providing calcium for bone health and protein for muscle repair. It’s also rich in B vitamins and contains probiotics to support gut health. However, it’s high in sodium and saturated fat, so moderation is key. The addition of olive oil introduces heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while the vibrant tomatoes offer antioxidants like lycopene. Baked Feta Cheese is a flavorful and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a dip, side, or part of a wholesome Mediterranean-inspired meal.
