8oz penne pasta
olive oil
fresh ground pepper

diced tomatoes
sliced kalamata olives

The amount of tomatoes, basil and olives you add is up to you. Just eyeball it. Don’t get that yucky dry feta that smells like old socks, get the good stuff in brine. It’s so worth it! Trader joe’s has some really good feta in brine. You can also use any kind of pasta you have laying around.
