Directions:
Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 60 minutes
Serves: 4
To make the Vibrant Herb Sauce:
Mix all of the ingredients together in a bowl. Allow to sit at least 10 minutes (preferably an hour) before serving so that the flavors can infuse.
Feta Garden Vegetable Skillet Bake:
Preheat the oven to 375°F and rub the olive oil all over the inside of an oven safe skillet. Spread the tomato sauce in the bottom of the skillet.
Arrange the vegetables in a ring around the outside edge of the pan alternating eggplant, red bell pepper, and red onion rings until you are out of ingredients to layer in.
Tuck in all but 3 or 4 of the feta triangles and all of the thyme sprigs and garlic slices. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Cover in aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 20 minutes or until the vegetables are completely tenderized and beginning to loose stricture and melt into the sauce.
Remove any woody thyme sprigs and serve immediately with warm naan bread, the vibrant herb sauce, and the remaining feta crumbled over the top.
