Lauren Hodes- Week 15- Viral pasta recipe

     Hey guys so today for dinner my mom and I made the pasta recipe that has been going viral recently.  This recipe went so viral that feta cheese actually sold out in all supermarkets in Finland! After hearing this I decided it was worth a shot and besides it was good quality time. I’m going to give a recipe and a review so you can decide if it's worth making or not. For the recipe you will need- 2 pints of cherry tomatoes, one 8 ounce block of feta cheese, olive oil, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, basil, and your pasta of choice. The first step is adding your tomatoes and feta cheese to an 8 x 13 inch pyrex dish. In the dish, you need to drizzle olive oil and season with oregano, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. This bakes at 400 degrees for around 40 minutes. While this is roasting, at the same time you should be making your pasta. Penne noodles are probably best for this recipe but of course you can choose your favorite type of pasta. After the pasta and tomato/feta mixture is cooked and cooling, you need to mash the roasted tomatoes and feta cheese together. This wasn’t difficult because they were cooking for a while and were soft. Add the pasta to the pyrex dish with your tomato feta sauce and sprinkle basil on top. Then serve and enjoy your cooking!

    Okay so here is my review- the pasta was definitely good. Tomatoes are my favorite veggie (I know they are a fruit but that’s a different conversation lol) so that was my favorite part of the dish. If you really enjoy feta cheese then you will definitely love this. Unfortunately feta just isn’t my favorite cheese because it tastes sour to me for some reason. All in all I think the recipe was easy, fun, and yummy. You should definitely try this if you enjoy cooking like me. Anyways, let me know in the comments below if this sounds good or if you are going to make it!

  1. Hi Lauren, thanks for sharing the recipe and a review. I’m always open-minded to new recipes and think cooking new dishes is fun! Tomatoes are also my favorite veggie/fruit, and pasta and cheese is always a delicious combination, so I definitely want to try this recipe sometime! I don’t think I’m the biggest fan of feta either, so maybe I’ll substitute different cheeses, but I’m sure it’ll taste good either way.
