Spinach, tomatoes, feta cheese, toasted pine nuts, and olives mixed together with penne pasta make an easy and delicious lunch or dinner. We sautéed the pine nuts in olive oil and garlic and then threw in the spinach and tomatoes to elevate the flavor of this Greek favorite. We used penne for this dish, but you could also substitute bowtie pasta or macaroni. We suggest using a block of feta cheese and crumbling it yourself rather than using the pre-crumbled variety.
