Things We Currently Love:

Wendy's pick: TikTok baked pasta recipe

Nikita's pick: TikTok baked oatmeal recipe

For TikTok baked pasta:

1 block feta cheese (8oz)

2 pints cherry tomatoes

1/4 cup olive oil (can add more if desired)

salt, pepper, garlic, basil, red chili flakes

Pasta of your choosing (Wendy used bowtie)

Save some pasta water

*Preheat oven to 400 degrees

*In a baking dish, combine tomatoes, salt, pepper and most of the olive oil

*Put the feta cheese in the middle and drizzle olive oil over it, add salt and pepper

*Bake in oven at 400 degrees for 45 minutes

*Once out of the oven, add garlic, basil, and red chili flakes

*Toss it all together then add your pasta, mix until all ingredients are combined

*Can add pasta water if your dish seems dry

*Enjoy



For TikTok baked oatmeal:

Rolled oats, 1/2 cup

Baking powder, 1/4 tsp

Banana, 1/2

Almond milk (though any milk will do), 1/4 cup

Pinch of Salt

Maple syrup, 1 tbsp

Optional: Egg - it'll make it more fluffy but it's still great without an egg

Extra (optional ingredients) - cinnamon, chocolate chips, peanut butter, almond butter, blueberries

*Preheat oven to 350 degrees

*Blend ingredients together (oats, baking powder, banana, almond milk, salt)

*If using chocolate chips, blueberries, add it after you blend the aforementioned ingredients

*Put your batter into an oven-safe ramekin (greased)

*Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes

*Do the toothpick test to make sure it's cooked through

*Enjoy! You can drizzle extra maple syrup or add peanut butter/almond butter for more sweetness and flavor
