Have y’all tried the viral TikTok Pasta recipe out yet?? Well, I did and I am here to give you my full review of it. And if it’s worth the hype or not.
The best part of this whole recipe is that it is SUPER EASY to make. Which means it is an ideal weeknight recipe after a busy workday. And that is always the kind of recipes I am after, what about you?!
Ingredients Needed:
- 16 oz dried rotini pasta
- 2 pints cherry tomatoes
- 1- 8 oz block of feta cheese
- 1/2 extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 cup packed chopped basil
Cooking Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Add the cherry tomatoes to your baking dish and pour the olive oil on top. Then, add in your salt and pepper. Toss it all together until combined.
Add your feta block of cheese right in the middle of the dish. Flip it around a few times to coat it well with the olive oil and salt and pepper.
Place into preheated oven for about 35 minutes. Or until the tomatoes burst and the feta cheese starts to melt. While the tomatoes are cooking, make your pasta according to the package directions.
Assemble The Pasta
After your pasta is cooked and the tomatoes and feta are all done, now is the time to assemble it all together. Add in the garlic and basil to the tomatoes and feta.
Then, after tossing together, add in the cooked pasta.
Toss everything once again to combine it well and then garnish with more fresh basil if desired. Then, eat and enjoy!
My Review of TikTok Pasta
Was it really worth the hype? I think so. It was easy and delicious and I love anything on the mediterranean side like this dish is.
However, I think the next time I make it, I am going to add in some chicken or shrimp to give it some more oomph.
I like the fact that it is super quick and easy to make and you basically have to just throw everything in the same dish. And there is not much chopping or cutting required.
That’s always something I look for when I am trying to pick out an easy recipe to make. Have you tried the TikTok Pasta recipe before? If so, how did it turn out for you and what did you think about it?
