Sweet saucy tomatoes dancing with salty chunks of feta fabulous in a pasta pool!

This recipe is dedicated to the love of my life! My husband and me went on a honeymoon to (the magical ocean front) Santorini Greece. There was instant calm and relaxation the minute we stepped on the island. As a wedding gift my sister gave us a boat ride that had a chef on board. They made us the most simple pasta dish ever (with most of the same ingredients). Every time I make this dish, my heart sings with joy from this memory. I love to make this for Tom and bring the pan to the table with two forks. Nothing fancy for us. This 15 minute stay-cation always reminds me what is important our family and to spread love and kindness. Hope this recipe brings you happiness and celebrates you!
