It's a one pot wonder ready in just 20 minutes! This Mediterranean inspired One Pot 20 Minute Greek Pasta is a dump and make vegetarian dinner that's bound to be a family favorite like it's become in our house!
It's one of our new favorites. This One Pot 20 Minute Greek Pasta is a put it all in a pot and let it do it's thing until it's done, kind of a dinner!
Ingredients Needed
This one pot pasta is a little bit of a departure from our normal super duper fresh meals, but a couple of extra cans doesn't necessarily mean that you're not still eating healthy whole foods.
Whole Wheat Spaghetti - You can also sub for regular spaghetti or linguine! I don't suggest a thin or angel hair though for risk of it overcooking and getting a little mushy. Don't forget, you can also make your own Fresh Pasta!
Olives - We made this with whole black olives that we sliced, but you can also use pre-sliced black olives or even some pitted and chopped or sliced kalamata olives.
Artichokes - Be sure to not get marinated artichokes in oil.
Tomatoes - We used diced fresh Roma Tomatoes AND a can of diced tomatoes. You could use any kind of tomato. You could also use canned diced tomatoes, removed from liquid.
Feta Cheese - Firstly, did you know you can make your own Feta Cheese From Scratch?! It's a labor of love but oh my gosh it's worth it. But obviously if you don't have the time, regular feta from your favorite brand is great!
Herbs - Fresh parsley (or dried), salt, pepper, oregano, and garlic powder.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Truly, a 20 minute pasta doesn't get much easier than this!
Step 1: Throw it all into your trusty Dutch oven (except the feta) or pot with 4 1/2 cups of water and olive oil.
Step 2: Bring it to a boil.
Let boil (stirring so the pasta doesn't stick) for about 9 minutes, annndd done!
