Roasted Tomatoes And Whipped Feta On Toast Recipes

Steps:

• For the whipped feta, place the feta and cream cheese in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Pulse until the cheeses are mixed. Add 1/3 cup of the olive oil, the lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and process until smooth.
• For the tomatoes, up to an hour before you're serving, combine the shallots, garlic, and vinegar in a medium bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes. Whisk in the remaining 1/3 cup olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add the tomatoes, stir gently, and set aside for 10 minutes. Stir in the basil and taste for seasonings.
• To assemble the crostini, spread each slice of bread with a generous amount of whipped feta. With a slotted spoon, place the tomatoes on top. Put the crostini on plates and scatter with the pine nuts. Sprinkle with extra basil and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Spread the Simple Truth™ Grape Tomatoes on the prepared baking sheet and toss with the olive oil and 1 teaspoon salt.
• Roast the tomatoes for 15-18 minutes, or until lightly charred and softened.
• While tomatoes roast, make the whipped feta dip: In a blender or food processor, combine the feta, garlic, sour cream, Greek yogurt, Simple Truth™ Organic Lemon zest and juice, dill, oregano, and remaining teaspoon of salt. Puree until smooth.
• Spread the whipped feta dip in a shallow bowl. Pile the roasted tomatoes in the center, drizzling over any extra olive oil from roasting. Garnish with a few sprigs of dill, the sesame seeds, and red pepper flakes. Serve with Simple Truth™ Sea Salt Pita Crisps for dipping.
• Enjoy!
