Ingredients

  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes 10 oz, 283 g
  • 1 14-oz can chickpeas drained, 396 g
  • ¼ tsp each salt and pepper
  • 1 8-oz block feta cheese 226 g
  • Pinch crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • Season: In a large bowl, toss tomatoes, drained chickpeas, salt, and pepper.
  • Assemble: Place the cube of feta in the center of a disposable aluminum pan (8 x 8 inches), sprinkling it with a pinch of crushed red pepper. Transfer tomatoes and chickpeas into the pan so they surround the feta. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and store in a fridge or cooler until ready to cook (up to 3 days).
    A foil tray sits on a wooden surface, filled with cherry tomatoes and chickpeas, topped with a block of campfire feta cheese sprinkled with red pepper flakes.
  • Cook: Cook over hot coals (or elevated over a fire) until feta is soft and tomatoes begin to burst, about 30 minutes.
    The foil tray on the grill turns into a campfire feta bake, featuring a block of creamy feta nestled among cherry tomatoes and gnocchi, all sprinkled with fiery red pepper flakes.

Notes

If storing in a cooler, place the pan in a gallon-sized Ziploc bag to prevent water from getting in!
