     Title: Baked Feta Pasta
Categories: Vegetables, Cheese, Pasta, Herbs
     Yield: 8 servings

     2 pt Cherry tomatoes
     3 cl Garlic; halved
   1/2 c  Olive oil, divided
     8 oz Block feta cheese
     1 ts Sea salt
   1/4 ts Coarse ground pepper
    16 oz Rigatoni or other short
          - pasta
          Fresh basil leaves; coarse
          - chopped

 Set oven @ 400ºF/205ºC.

 In a 13" X 9" baking dish, combine tomatoes, garlic and
 1/4 cup olive oil. Place the block of feta in the
 center, moving tomatoes so the cheese is sitting on the
 bottom of the dish. Drizzle the feta with remaining oil
 and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until tomato
 skins start to split and the garlic has softened, 30-40
 minutes.

 Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions
 for al dente. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water.

 Stir the feta mixture, lightly pressing tomatoes, until
 combined. Add pasta and toss to combine. Stir in enough
 reserved pasta water to reach desired consistency.
 Sprinkle with basil.
