Pasta with Spinach and Feta

I made this the night we left to go home for Thanksgiving. I had a few things in the fridge that I wanted to use up, and just sort of threw it together. It was light, flavorful and super easy to make.

Ingredients
  • 6 ounces penne
  • olive oil
  • 3/4 cup diced onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 15 oz can Italian style chopped tomatoes, drained
  • 2 cups spinach leaves
  • salt and pepper
  • dash of crushed red pepper
  • 6 ounces crumbled feta cheese
Directions

1. Boil pasta according to package directions.

2. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onions and garlic until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and spinach, stirring to coat with onion/garlic mixture. Sprinkle with sat and pepper to taste; add a dash of crushed red pepper for heat.


3. Cook an additional 2-3 minutes until tomatoes are warm and spinach has wilted. Remove from heat and stir in pasta and feta.
