With the holidays hot on my heels, I’m keeping it simple this week when it comes to meals. Well… you know, outside of the big main meal that’s coming up that is. This Tomato & Feta Cheese Spaghetti is just about easy as it comes. Just toss some tomatoes and feta into dish and bake it for a bit with some oil and seasoning. Then toss with pasta and tada! Dinner.

This stuff is good too. AND it’s super easy to double up on if you have a larger crowd to feed. Plus, I love the fact that this spaghetti dinner is vegetarian too. It’s a meatless meal that everyone can enjoy!

With so few ingredients, there isn’t much you can do here to lighten the dish up other than use wheat noodles and a reduced fat feta cheese. I served this spaghetti as is and with nothing on the side. But, if you wanted to, this dinner would be great paired with a simple side Italian salad or a homemade breadstick.

I topped mine off with some fresh basil and just al little bit of shredded parmesan!
