Cook the pasta according to package directions

Sauté the onion in 2 tbsp (30 ml) of olive oil until well softened. Combine the roasted red pepper, olives, and tomatoes and warm slightly in the microwave so that they do not cool the pasta. Also combine the additional olive oil, lemon juice, mashed feta and oregano.

When the pasta is done, add the feta and mix well. Then add the roasted red pepper, olive, tomato combination and the olive oil, lemon juice, mashed feta, oregano combination. Mix well and add salt and pepper to taste.

Serve with Pita and a Cucumber and Onion Salad.
