Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes
- ½ medium onion, diced
- 3 large cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ cup olive oil
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 (8 ounce) package feta cheese
- 1 (8 ounce) package farfalle (bow-tie) pasta
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray.
- Place cherry tomatoes, onion, and garlic in the prepared dish. Drizzle olive oil over top and season with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Set feta block in the center of the dish and turn over to coat with olive oil and spices.
- Bake in the preheated oven until tomatoes soften and feta is starting to brown, about 35 minutes.

Reviews
I omitted the onions, I added Parmesan cheese at the end. It turn out amazing! I will make this again !
Wonderful! I followed the recipe exactly and we loved it. Great flavor with the feta, basil, and tomatoes. It was also creamy thanks to the heavy cream – I would definitely recommend using it. I did have one problem and that was that my garlic burned. Next time I might add it later, not sure. It is also very easy to make. 5 stars all around!
