The viral recipe with a little plot twist! Artichokes are so underrated and elevate this easy pasta recipe right away. Made with whole wheat cavatappi, sheep’s milk feta and marinated jarred artichokes to create a cozy and super satisfying meal.
1. Preheat oven to 400F. In an oven-safe baking dish place olive oil, feta, artichokes, sea salt, pepper (referring to red pepper flakes), sumac, and dried basil.
2. Drizzle more olive oil and dried basil on top and bake for ~30-35 mins.
3. While the feta bakes, cook pasta of your choice according to package instructions. Drain & save ~1/4 cup of pasta water- which we’ll add to the sauce later to make it even creamier. Pasta water has starch and is the best emulsifier!
4. Remove from the oven, mash & mix into a sauce. Add pasta. Add a pinch of pasta water to thicken. Top with fresh basil and red pepper flakes! Enjoy every bite!
5. PRO tip: if reheating leftovers- add crumbled feta on top, a drizzle of olive oil- and a tiny splash of oat cream. Delish.
