Baked feta with broccoli, lemon and onions is a creamy pasta dish that will have you going in for seconds. Tiktok baked feta pasta is an easy weeknight meal and a great alternative to alfredo sauce.
I have become addicted to the TikTok famous baked feta pasta. Now I don’t love tomatoes so I decided to make an alternative. I did my own spin on a broccoli alfredo by making a broccoli baked feta pasta. Let me tell you this might have been the best pasta I have ever made… and I’ve made a lot of pasta.
If you want to try a different version of this recipe? Try baked feta pasta with mushrooms and spinach. Also try this one pan baked feta spinach and artichoke dip.
Broccoli Baked Feta Pasta
This pasta dish first went viral on TikTok. Essentially the original recipe just combines olive oil, cherry tomatoes, garlic and feta cheese. Baked in a dish and tossed with pasta. I am not the biggest fan of tomatoes.
Growing up I loved Chicken, broccoli and ziti in an alfredo sauce. Now I decided to skip the chicken today but it could easily be added. I am not a fan of jarred alfredo sauce so baked feta is a great alternative. It’s creamy texture works great to coat the pasta and broccoli.
I love to add lemon zest and lemon juice to this recipe it brings a brightness to a heavier dish. The lemon isn’t too overpowering.
This is going to my new go to recipe for pasta any night of the week. I can wait to try more variations.

Which Feta cheese should I use?
Make sure to use a block of Feta. If you use crumbled feta it won’t melt as well. I used the Trader Joe’s authentic greek sheep’s milk feta in brine. Make sure you are getting a good quality feta.
