Roast Tomatoes and Feta
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large baking dish (or oven-safe pot), spread out the cherry tomatoes. Place the block of feta cheese in the center. Drizzle generously with olive oil. Add smashed garlic cloves, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes (if using). Season with salt and black pepper.

Make the Soup
Carefully remove the baking dish from the oven. Mash the roasted tomatoes and feta with a fork or potato masher to combine. Pour in the vegetable broth and stir well. Return the dish to the oven for another 5-10 minutes, or transfer to a pot on the stovetop and simmer for 5-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. For a smoother soup, you can carefully blend it with an immersion blender or in batches in a regular blender.
