Pasta with feta cheese and greens

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 pounds Pasta (tubes, corkscrews, or shells), cooked
1 bunch (large) each, fresh variety of greens including:
Kale
Collard greens
Dandelion greens
Escarole
Mustard greens
Spinach
1 large Onion
2 tablespoons Olive oil
3 ounces Feta cheese, crumbled

Directions

Trim stems and tear all greens into bits. (This is a good thing to do in advance if you can.) Dice lots of onion and cook in a large skillet (wok works even better) in the olive oil. When the onion is translucent add the greens...stuff the pan as full as possible...if all greens can't fit in the pan all at once, that is o.k., you can keep adding greens as they cook down, which they will do considerably. Keep tossing wilted greens over uncooked pieces so that everything cooks evenly. When the greens are all just softened or wilted, add the cooked pasta and crumbled feta cheese.

Toss all ingredients together and serve in pretty pasta bowls.

Mollie's pasta rules:

1. do not drain all water from the noodles when draining 2. do not over or under cook pasta, pasta should be "toothy" 3. pasta does not always have to be eaten hot.

Serving Ideas : Good with roasted red bell peppers, fruit, and bread NOTES : This is an excellent vegetarian dish. Chris and Lynn rate *****! Excellent for the next day's lunch box, even cold.
