Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Combine diced zucchini, red onion, orange bell pepper, and cherry tomatoes on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Nestle feta cheese among the vegetables, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of kosher salt.
  3. Roast in the oven for 15 minutes until vegetables are tender and feta is golden.
  4. Cook fusilli pasta in salted boiling water according to package instructions, usually about 8-10 minutes until al dente. Reserve ½ cup pasta water before draining.
  5. In a bowl, combine roasted vegetables and feta with pasta; crumble feta and add reserved pasta water, remaining olive oil, pepper, lemon juice, and arugula. Toss to combine.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days.
