For #SundaySupper today we have the theme of Five Ingredients or Less hosted by T.R. Crumbley from Gluten Free Crumbley. For this theme, we are able to use water, salt, pepper, and oil as “freebies” and they do not count as ingredients. I thought of simple Marinated Feta Tomato Skewers. They have few ingredients, are huge on taste, and are a little bite that is perfect before a big BBQ meal. I like to serve something like this to start with, not too filling also when you have a lot of other things to serve.
I love adding extra flavor to the cheese. I have done a few of these marinated cheeses in the past and they have always been a hit. This one has fresh lemon flavors along with the warm earthy flavor of oregano. The burst of tomato in your mouth finishes off the taste perfectly.
Marinated Feta Tomato Skewers #SundaySupper
Ingredients
- 1 small lemon zested and juiced (1 tsp. lemon zest and 1 1/2 Tbsp. lemon juice
- 1 tsp. dried oregano
- 3 Tbsp. olive oil
- Pepper to taste
- 7 oz. feta I used sheep
- 24 grape tomatoes
Instructions
- Cut feta into 24 pieces. Whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, olive oil and pepper. Put the feta into a container with a lid and pour over the lemon mixture. Carefully turn to coat. Refrigerate for 2 hours. Don't let it sit in the oil too long as the oil will set. If this does happen just bring up to room temperature again. When ready to serve, skewer the feta and tomatoes together and serve.
Now, let’s see what everyone else is up to with 5 Ingredients or Less. I can’t wait to visit them all.

It’s this sort of appetizer that always goes first. No messy fingers, no spills — in the mouth and down it goes. PLUS, it tastes fantastic.
