I used to make my own homemade linguine to accompany the sauce but my Popeil Pasta Maker has bit the dust so for now we are using dried linguine from the pantry (that's good right?! to use what's IN the pantry?)
Anyway, here's the recipe for 4 people:
1-1/2 cups crumbled feta cheese (I use light)
2-3 chopped green onions
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
4-6 chopped tomatoes
dried or fresh chopped basil
2 cloves garlic
salt & pepper to taste.
This is so easy I almost feel guilty calling it a recipe. You basically throw everything into a bowl. Boil the pasta and put the sauce on top. The only warning I would give is NOT to refrigerate the sauce as it cools the pasta off quite quickly. I make the sauce up while the pasta is boiling and everything is at room temperate. Cold tomatoes - blech!!!
Anyway, here are some pictures of this delicious pasta dish under construction. This recipe has been rated 10/10 in my family for well over 10 years:

| I use light feta cheese. The taste is not affected at all. Crumble cheese. |

| Chopped green onion in the bowl & ROMA tomatoes are the best |
 |
| Deliciousness! |
 | |
| Like I said ~ so simple ~ all in a big bowl mixed together |
 |
| Secret ingredient! |
 |
| I also use fresh basil if I have it. |
 |
| The old pantry standby! |
Serve with foccacia bread and balsamic/olive oil dip, and red wine! This is good enough for company!
Enjoy!
Until next time,
