Remember toward the middle of quarantine, when that feta pasta recipe went viral on Tiktok? You know the one! We even did a portobello and goat cheese variation back in March. Well, in true camping fashion, I decided to find a way to make that same dish campfire friendly! Except this time, we’re skipping the mushrooms and goat cheese and creating a recipe that’s actually more similar to the Tiktok version! We nixed the pasta (since it doesn’t store as well) and added chickpeas to make it more of a meal. The result is a complete and total camping treat! I mean, who eats this well without access to an oven?!

How to make a campfire feta bake
This dish tastes so luxe, but it’s surprisingly simple to make. Start by mixing the ingredients, and then put them in a dish around the feta. Cover, and cook when ready! Only 5 minutes of prep time required. Note: Avoid putting the tray on direct flames (it will burn through the bottom of the pan). Instead, use hot coals or stones that have been in the fire and are hot.
