Ingredients
- Feta Cheese: The heart of the recipe. Use a good-quality block of feta - it becomes perfectly creamy when baked.
- Cherry Tomatoes: Add sweetness and freshness to the dish. Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes for the best result.
- Spinach: Frozen spinach works best here and makes the recipe extra easy. The pasta is also delicious without spinach if you prefer.
- Olive Oil: Essential for roasting the feta and tomatoes and creating that rich, silky sauce.
- Chili: Adds a gentle heat. Omit for a mild or Low FODMAP version.
- Salt & Black Pepper: Simple seasoning that brings all the flavors together.
- Pasta of Choice: Tagliatelle, penne, fusilli, or any pasta you like works well.
