This hearty main dish has great Mediterranean flavor. I left out the olives, and my family still loved it. —Susan Stetzel, Gainesville, New York

Tip

The History of Feta

FETA is a white, salty, semi-firm cheese. Traditionally it was made from sheep or goat's milk but is now also made with cow's milk. After feta is formed in a special mold, it's sliced into large pieces, salted and soaked in brine. Although feta cheese is mostly associated with Greek cooking, "feta" comes from the Italian word "fette", meaning slice of food.

substituted spinach for the artichokes for hubby, but regretted it because I didn't like it as much as I thought. Will have to try again and cook as directed.

This was fairly easy, and a break out of my normal routine. I love all those yummy greek things, olives, arti hearts, feta, tomatoes, my husband, typically not. But this recipe he loved, it was his favorite dinner all week!

I made this for my family, everyone loved it! I added a clove of crushed garlic (could use a teaspoon of minced) with the onions. Didn't have olives and used dried parsley instead of fresh, yet it was still excellent. New favorite!

This was SO good! I too omitted the black olives. The artichokes gave this dish such a refreshing flavor. My Husband who "thought" he didn't like artichokes loved this too.

This was wonderful! Even my husband liked it. I was skeptical after mixing it all together, but broiling it is what made it excellent. Will make many more times.
