Baked feta pasta took the world—and our kitchen—by storm when it first dominated our TikTok feeds in 2021. Pasta may have been the start of our obsession, but we’ve expanded our baked feta repertoire throughout the years (the idea was too genius to not incorporate into all our favorite recipes). While this hack is a dinner star (baked feta chickpeas is one of our most-recent weeknight winners), baked feta works for any occasion. Our baked feta frittata and baked feta eggs always steal the spotlight at brunch, while our baked feta bites and crispy feta pockets are always welcome additions to any appetizer spread. Think feta can’t work as a dessert? Think again! Baked feta and blueberries is not only incredibly easy to create, but is equally delicious as a summer dessert as it is a creative take on a fruit and cheese plate.

Baked Feta Pasta

Baked feta pasta—the dish that started it all. Obviously roasting a block of feta with bursting tomatoes is going to be amazing. But is it good enough to break TikTok like this one did? Our answer, begrudgingly, is yes. It's genius—super-easy, but fancy enough for date night. 😍

Baked Feta Soup

Though we can basically never say no to pasta, when we need cozy vibes, we often start craving tomato soup. Why not combine the two? Simply prepare the sauce as you would for baked feta pasta, add some chicken broth, and blend. And there's your creamy tomato soup without cream!

Baked Feta & Blueberries

We took the beloved baked feta pasta and turned it into a dessert dip (you're welcome!). Baking down blueberries and feta turn them into a creamy, jammy dip—serve it with crackers and toasted bread, or go for some graham crackers and shortbread.

Tomato Feta Pinwheels

These little puff pastry pinwheels are the perfect last minute appetizer—they bake in just 20 minutes and you might already have the ingredients at home. Feel free to get creative with the fillings too. We went with briny feta and tomatoes, but we bet crumbly goat cheese or ricotta and roasted red peppers would be great too.
