Ingredients
  

For the Pasta
  • 1 pound linguine or spaghetti
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 can diced tomatoes 14.5 ounce, undrained
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
For the Add-ins
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1/2 cup Kalamata olives pitted and halved
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Equipment

  • Large pot or Dutch oven
  • Knife
  • Cutting board

Method
 

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the pasta, vegetable broth, diced tomatoes (with their juice), chopped onion, minced garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir to combine.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and Kalamata olives. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cherry tomatoes have softened slightly.
  4. Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the olive oil, chopped parsley, and crumbled feta cheese. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  5. Serve immediately.

Notes

You can add other vegetables like spinach or bell peppers along with the cherry tomatoes. For a non-vegetarian option, you can add cooked chicken or shrimp at the end.
