Ingredients

4 vine-ripened or Roma tomatoes, chopped
2 cups grape tomatoes, halved
1 jar (10 oz) roasted red bell peppers, strained and chopped
¹⁄₂ loaf stale bread, torn into chunks
1 shallot, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 celery heart, thinly sliced, leaves set aside
2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, more for drizzling
2 tsp sherry vinegar
Salt and cracked black pepper, to taste
Pinch of granulated sugar, to taste
4 oz Macedonian feta, broken into bite-size chunks
1 can (14 oz) butter beans, drained and rinsed

Directions

Preheat oven to 425˚. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, place vine and grape tomatoes, bell peppers, bread, shallot, garlic, and celery heart. Add oil, vinegar, salt and pepper, and sugar (if using). Toss to combine. Let marinate for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to distribute juices.
Spread vegetable mixture out on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until vine tomatoes have softened and grape tomatoes have gone jammy. Scatter feta evenly overtop and switch oven to broil. Broil for 3 to 5 minutes, until cheese has softened. Let cool for 2 to 3 minutes. Top with butter beans, celery leaves, and another drizzle of oil. Serve immediately.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
