For once I feel that I am on-trend and ahead of the game. The kids came running in with phone in hand this week shouting about how our favourte feta pasta was all over TikTok. I know it’s not my recipe but this is one of my daughter’s favourites meals (she does love Feta). I love how you can easily throw together cook and enjoy. So in their honour here you go our own Baked Feta Pasta with delicious mini plum tomatoes so you can make it too.

Feta Pasta Bake

Pasta bakes are one of the easiest meals that I make at home and we tend to have them at least once a week. It’s my got to help the kids with homework and finish off my own work meal.

This pasta bake with feta, plum tomatoes (the mini ones work the best) and fresh basil is amazing. The saltiness of the feta and sweetness of the tomatoes work together and remind me of holidays in Greece.

I made it with Farfalle or bow tie pasta although you could switch it out for your family’s favourite sort. Following our guide on cooking pasta, I made sure that the pasta was cooked beforehand with just a little bite to it.
