Another random concoction of stuff I had in my kitchen that shouldn't really be called a recipe, but my family loved it so I thought I would share. All measurements are approximate.
1 pkg. penne pasta
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 small summer squash or zucchini, diced small
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tsp. minced garlic
1-2 tsp. kosher salt
7-8 fresh basil leaves, chopped
1-2 cups ripe cherry, pear or grape tomatoes (or any combination of the 3)
1 Tbsp. corn starch
1 cup feta cheese
Cook pasta according to directions on package. While pasta is cooking, coat bottom of a saute pan with olive oil and add summer squash. Cover. Cook for 3-4 minutes over medium heat. Add balsamic vinegar, garlic, kosher salt, basil leaves, and cherry tomatoes to saute pan. Continue cooking over medium heat, uncovered, until tomatoes have split their skins and squash is soft and cooked through. Add corn starch to veggies and sauce and stir to combine. Turn heat down to low and let simmer for 3-5 minutes to allow sauce to thicken a bit.
When pasta is cooked and drained, place in a serving bowl and toss with feta cheese. Pour veggies and sauce mixture over top and stir to combine and melt feta. Serve hot.
