ROASTED ASPARAGUS & PEPPERS WITH FETA
This is from the Kraft Canada website, but don't let that discourage you. It's very good and it doesn't use any of that "kid" food that I normally think of when I hear the name "Kraft". We just used normal, unflavored feta cheese, but I'll bet it would be even better with the feta specified in the recipe.
