Have you tried the viral baked feta pasta recipe from TikTok?

If you’re looking for an easy and delicious weeknight dinner recipe, the baked feta pasta trending on TikTok is perfect. The recipe was first shared by Finnish food blogger Jenni Häyrinen (@liemessa) and was so popular it caused Finnish grocery stores to run out of feta. Here are 3 different takes from TikTok foodies.

1. Stick to the original recipe.

TikTok creator Jamie Milne (@everything_delish) keeps it true to the original Finnish recipe by using 8 simple ingredients: tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, lemon zest, and your favorite pasta. As long as your local grocery store isn’t out of feta, the recipe will come together in minutes.

2. Cut the carbs with a keto version.

For anyone watching their carbs or just trying to get in some extra veggies, TikTok creator Mayra Wendolyne (@lowcarblove) shows how to make this viral TikTok recipe keto-friendly. She uses similar spices as the original (opting for avocado over olive oil) but swaps out regular pasta with spiralized zucchini. The zoodles turn a once heavy dish into something light, creamy, and perfect for lunch. No food coma necessary.

3. Make it vegan and gluten free.

Popular Pilates and fitness instructor Cassey Ho of @blogilates decided to give this viral pasta recipe a healthy vegan and gluten free twist. To create a vegan feta cheese, she blended tofu, cashews, garlic, apple cider vinegar, salt, and nutritional yeast. She also adds some spinach to the dish to get in extra greens and uses a hearts of palm pasta from Trader Joe’s to keep it gluten free.
