Sundried tomato pasta with feta and spinach
This hearty pasta is packed with vegetables and flavor.  Serious flavor.

I would make this regularly even if it took hours so it’s just an added bonus that this dish makes it to the table in just 20 minutes.

Roughly chop your veggies and make the sauce while the pasta is cooking.  Strain the pasta and dump everything together in the same pot.

Customize to your taste: leave out anything you don’t like and swap out your favorite veggies – roasted bell peppers, canned artichokes, arugula, fresh basil, etc.

This can be served hot or cold as a pasta salad.  The leftovers are delicious making it an excellent make-ahead dish.  Leave out the feta to make it vegan and use gluten-free pasta for a quick and easy gluten-free dinner.

    A basic, rudimentary question – where’s a good place to find non-oiled sun-dried tomatoes in LA?

      Trader Joe’s has my favorite. They come in bag rather than the jar. Just soak them in hot water for a few minutes to rehydrate. I think I’ve seen them at Ralph’s, too, but for a bit more money.

    Is there a way I can make the sauce without a food processor? This looks so delicious!

      Hi Nikki!

      You can use a blender or, in a pinch, chop the tomatoes, capers and garlic as finely as you can before mixing with the oil, vinegar and pepper. Maybe add a tiny bit of mustard when you’re mixing to help emulsify. It should still be tasty!

    Thanks heaps for the reply 🙂 I’m making this tonight so I’m going to try chopping them very finely, so hopefully that will work. Thank you for the suggestion with the mustard and for such amazing recipes!

        It was delicious, in rotation. I’m making it Gain tonight but I got a nutri ninja 2 in 1 for Christmas that has a food processor so now I can try it as the recipe says. This recipe was the best find ever, as was your website <3
