Feta is having a moment thanks to social media and a viral recipe for baked feta pasta - a super simple dish of cherry tomatoes, pasta and salty feta, all mixed together. It's so simple, anyone can make it.

And that's the great thing about feta. It's a really versatile ingredient and can make an excellent addition to a frittata, elevate a warming bowl of couscous and is even wonderful just crumbled over fresh salad leaves with a drizzle of olive oil.

You can even make a summery roast chicken with the addition of feta, olives and oregano. Delicious.
