Spinach And Feta Pasta Preparation
* Caution: we like very hot and spicy foods. This was moderately spicy to our tastes. You can always add more peppers at the table (like my husband did). Cook the pasta to al dente. Drain. While the pasta is cooking, saute the garlic in the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the dried oregano and chopped tomato. When the tomato is soft, add the thawed spinach. Mix the drained pasta with the vegetables in the skillet. Add the lemon juice and liquid from the spinach (or broth or water) as needed to keep the pasta well-moistened. Toss in the feta cheese. Serve immediately (if possible). My husband was very late arriving home, so I held the meal on the stove top for an hour. Keep adding liquid, as needed, if you don”t serve the dish immediately.

If you like it melted, cover the pan and keep it over medium-low heat for a few minutes after adding the feta. Stir frequently. Recipe by: Ellen C.
