How to Make Lemon And Feta Pasta

  1. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta cooking water before draining.
  2. While pasta cooks, whisk together olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic in a large bowl.
  3. Add the drained pasta to the dressing and toss to coat. Add a little pasta water if needed to create a creamy sauce.
  4. Stir in the crumbled feta cheese, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced spring onions.
  5. Gently heat the pasta over low heat for 1-2 minutes, or until the feta is slightly melted and the tomatoes are warmed through. Add more pasta water if needed to adjust the consistency.
  6. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  7. Serve warm or cold. Enjoy!
