I'm not a huge fan of feta cheese, but I actually really enjoyed these potatoes. The lemon zest and herbs helped to balance out the tanginess of the cheese.

Not a fan. The feta cheese was overpowering and the potatoes were bland.

These potatoes were a little too tangy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use less feta cheese.
