  • Servings 2

Ingredients

  • 6 oz. (2 cups) uncooked penne (tube-shaped pasta)
  • 1 (14-oz.) jar spaghetti sauce
  • 1 (6-oz.) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained, coarsely chopped
  • 1 oz. (1/4 cup) crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, if desired

Steps

  • 1
    Cook penne to desired doneness as directed on package. Drain; cover to keep warm.
  • 2
    Meanwhile, in medium saucepan, combine spaghetti sauce and artichoke hearts. Cook over medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring occasionally.
  • 3
    To serve, spoon sauce over penne; sprinkle with cheese and parsley.

  • Feta is a classic Greek cheese traditionally made from sheep’s or goat’s milk. Commercial American manufacturers now make feta from cow’s milk. Feta has a mild flavor, but because it is cured and stored in a salty brine, it adds a tart and salty flavor to food.
  • Use your favorite pasta shapes in place of the penne. Shapes differ in size and density, so be sure to cook the pasta you choose according to the package directions.
  • Cantaloupe and honeydew melon wedges are a sweet contrast to this savory entrée. Garlic toast or warm pita bread complete the meal.
