recession buster meals. #2

another great meal for under $10.00

it's based on this recipe
but i don't like wine sauces or olives so i changed it up.

the ingredients i used were:

10-15 cherry tomatoes on the vine $2.99
1/4 lb salami $2.34
rigatoni pasta $0.80
2 cloves garlic-on hand
feta cheese $3.49 (plenty left over)
2 tsp. + 1 Tbsp. olive oil - on hand

total-$9.62

after i roasted the tomatoes in olive oil, salt & pepper,
i slightly mashed them to add more liquid to the dish to make up for the lack of wine.
i added tomato and basil flavored feta cheese and it was PERFECT
and soo easy. it was kinda like a hot pasta salad.
