TOMATO FETA BAKED SPAGHETTI SQUASH

• Preheat oven to 375 F. Poke holes in spaghetti squash with a knife and microwave for 5 minutes, then slice in half horizontally (the short way) and remove the seeds. Place the spaghetti squash, cut side down on a rimmed baking sheet with 2 tablespoons of water. Roast spaghetti squash on top rack for 20-30 minutes or until strands are just cooked enough to pull from the shell.
• While the squash is roasting, place the feta cheese in the middle of an 8X12 baking dish. Arrange the tomatoes, mushrooms and garlic around the cheese. Drizzle with olive oil and season with red pepper flakes, black pepper, and half the fresh basil. Place the baking dish on the bottom rack of the oven and roast for 20-30 minutes, or until the tomatoes are bursting and the feta is golden on top. Add the remaining basil and mix.
• When the squash is finished, pull the strands with a fork and place them in the baking dish with the feta cheese and vegetables. Mix until fully combined. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and garnish with more fresh basil if you like.

BAKED FETA PASTA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Toss the cherry tomatoes and olive oil with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and several grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl until combined. Transfer to a 2 1/2- to 3-quart baking dish, place the feta in the center of the tomatoes and season with a pinch of black pepper. Bake until the tomatoes have burst and the feta has softened, about 30 minutes. Raise the heat to 450 degrees F and continue to cook until the tomatoes and feta are golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 13 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water, then thoroughly drain the pasta.
• As soon as the tomatoes and feta come out of the oven, stir in the garlic and red pepper flakes (if using). Use the back of a spoon to smash the tomatoes and feta into a smooth and creamy sauce (it's okay if some of the oil isn't fully integrated). Add the pasta and half the basil and toss until evenly coated. If the sauce is too thick, stir in some pasta water a couple tablespoons at a time. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve topped with the remaining basil and a pinch of sea salt.
