16 Reviews of Penne With Spinach and Feta

From: dukeswalker

On Mar 24, 2006

Yuuummm - This is sooo good. I made it 3 times in the 1st week alone! I ran out and bought a huge bunch of baby spinach just so I can make more! I did need to use 1 15oz can of good diced tomatoes as I was out of fresh ones - and I think I actually preferred that more - which is good 'cause its easier! I also chose to skip the butter and I never missed it.

    Good recipe. Didn't have pinenuts so used pecans. Generous servings and also toddler friendly. Well worth the effort.

    I have made this dish so many times, and I never get tired of it. The recipe makes an enormous amount (there's only two of us in my household); but when you taste it, you'll be happy you have leftovers. Many thanks to Evelyn for creating one of our favorite recipes!!

    This recipe was so easy to make. I used pastuerised spinach & a little less feta plus a can of plum tomatoes including the juice. All the ingredients with the exception of the Penne my youngest son will usually not touch with a 10 foot pole. Well, my 3 men, youngest included, managed to polish this off & ALL thought it tasted great.

    This dish was excellent. I've made it twice so far, the first time as listed above. The second time I added cubed leftover ham. Next time I think I'll use Italian Sausage. It's DELISH as a main dish. Do try this, it deserves more than 5 stars. Very colorful, would be a great pot luck dish and I would feed it to company with no hesitation. 5*

    I changed this up, just a little bit, but this was very tasty, and makes a ton! First, I cooked maybe a pound of chicken breasts in a little olive oil and sprinkled with Italian Blend Spice Mix. Sliced into bite sized pieces then set aside. Followed the rest of the recipe, but didn't use any butter. I also used 2-15 oz. cans diced tomatoes, undrained, in place of the roma tomatotes. Added the chicken in the spinach tomato mixture just before tossing with the pasta. This is one I'll be making again.

    Another delicious recipe Evelyn. I've been making this for myself and my hubby for over a year but have only just got round to giving it a rating. Only thing I did different was cook the tomatoes for longer.

    This is a great recipe, wonderful and fresh!! I used one lemon, as was suggested by someone else, and it just added a great flavor to it. Everyone in my family loved it and are already fighting over the leftovers!
