Tomato and Spinach Garlic Linguine With Feta

Submitted by jusme

"Creamy, garlicky, easy to make, and just oh so yummy! You can use whatever type of linguine you prefer. I've made it with plain, spinach and chive, and garlic. When not using the Garlic Linguine, I add 1 tbl of minced garlic to the green onions and broccoli. You can add chicken to make it even more heartier, and different veggies to suit your family's tastes. Don't skimp on the feta; that's what makes it tangy and delicious."

i fixed this for an easy, quick dinner tonight. i added in some cooked chicken. DH said the spinach was a weird ingredient, but that it was a good meal. i liked it... maybe next time i'll use green pepper instead of spinach. thank you ^_^

Love the addition of the red pepper flakes.... I substituted zucchini for the broccoli and left out the spinach entirely. Also didn't have a full cup of feta on hand so I added fresh grated parmesan. It's a versatile recipe and a wonderful vegetarian meal!
