  5. This was excellent but I think for an entire block of feta you need more than 2 cups of tomatoes. I used 2boxes/pints (?) of tomatoes to a block of feta and the ratio was off. It got too dry. I didn’t add chicken but it was even too dry for the NuPasta I tried for the first time.

    I’ll use more tomatoes next time, but this recipe is a keeper.
