Baked Feta Pasta with Cherry Tomatoes and Basil
10 mins prepServes 4
A popular and easy-to-make pasta dish featuring roasted cherry tomatoes and a block of feta cheese, tossed with fresh basil and garlic, and served with rotini pasta.
1️⃣ Preheat oven to 400°F
2️⃣ Combine cherry tomatoes, olive oil, salt and pepper in a baking dish (toss to coat tomatoes) and then place the feta in the middle.. drizzle with a little extra olive oil on top of the feta
3️⃣ Bake for 35 minutes or until cheese is melted and tomatoes begin to burst (I broiled for 2-3 mins at the end to get the cheese browned)
4️⃣ While the tomatoes and feta are baking, boil pasta in salted water to your liking (I like mine al dente)
5️⃣ When the tomatoes and feta come out of the oven, immediately mix in the garlic, basil and pasta (I pressed down on some of the tomatoes to burst them)
6️⃣ Option to serve with parm on top - enjoy!
