Season 3, Episode 9: Mediterranean Feta Pasta Dish, Meatless and Meat-Containing. This is a fabulous split table recipe! This hybrid recipe is one that is very easily modifiable for split tables because the meat is added at the end and so it's easy to split the recipe into a meat portion and a meatless portion. This uses fresh ingredients and the only cooking done is to cook the pasta, so it's relatively quick aside from some chopping of veggies and tomatoes.

This recipe is a super easy and quick meal prep for a dinner meal, or lunch, and it's also got a summer-y type of felll to it.

Ingredients: 

  • 6 oz crumbled feta cheese (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 2 1/2 cups chopped fresh tomato (roma or larger tomatoes with seeds removed)
  • 1 cup chopped English cucumber
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onion (including the full green part, can add more to taste)
  • 4 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice (juice from about 1 fresh lemon)
  • 1/2 tsp dried basil
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp dried dill
  • 1/4 tsp ground oregano
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 pound pasta, any shape
  • 1 pound smoked sausage sliced (or cooked chicken or turkey works too) for the meat portion of the recipe

Instructions:

  1. Chop veggies and tomatoes.
  2. Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, spices, and herbs.
  3. Pour liquid over the veggies and cheese, stir well. 
  4. Add cooked pasta and stir.
  5. Serve.

Super easy!
