Notes
- Za’atar is a trendy middle easter spice blend that consists mainly of dry oregano, basil, thyme, sumac, sesame seeds, salt & pepper.
- This is a very quick recipe to make. While your water is coming to boil you can start sauteing the garlic and tomatoes. By the time the pasta is cooked it should be about time to add to the pan with everything else.
