After a minute, add 1 tbsp of minced garlic to the pan and sauté for a few minutes until fragrant.
Add the block of Feta cheese and the can of diced tomatoes to the pan. If you prefer a chunkier sauce, drain the tomatoes before adding them.
Let the mixture cook down until the Feta cheese has melted and the sauce is creamy and well combined.
Mix the cooked pasta with the creamy Feta tomato sauce until well coated.
Turn off the heat and let the dish sit for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve hot and enjoy the creamy goodness!
