Roasted Feta & Cherry Tomato Pasta
Just in case you needed another reason to make pasta, this recipe is it! We thought we’d take a spin at the viral roasted feta & tomato pasta utilizing fresh and local produce, Mt. Vikos Feta, and pasta from Tacoma Boys. Nothing beats a quick, easy, and delicious dinner.
Although this pasta recipe is easy, choosing your favorite pasta at Tacoma Boys may not be! We carry a large variety of artisan pastas that will take any pasta dish up a notch. Mt. Vikos Feta was our choice for this recipe, but you can choose from any feta blocks in our dairy/cheese section. Enjoy this dish, you will not regret it!
