1 bag uncooked penne or medium tube pasta
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup red bell pepper, chopped
1 cup green bell pepper, chopped
1/4 cup sliced black olives
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
splash lemon juice

Cook pasta according to package directions.

In a large skillet, saute onion in oil for a minute or two. Add garlic and continue to saute. Add bell peppers and continue for 2-3 minutes, or until lightly cooked. Add olives, oregano, basil, salt, cayenne and water. Bring to a boil. Add cooked pasta and lemon juice. Remove from heat and add feta.

Editor’s Note:

This is excellent with whole grain pasta to really help keep things healthy. Some like it a little spicier than this.
