Instructions
Heat a large skillet over high heat with a spritz of olive oil. Once it’s nice and hot, add your bell peppers and zucchini and let them sit for a couple of minutes until fragrant and browning a little on the bottom. Give them a stir and add your spinach, tomatoes and salt. Turn the heat down just a little (to medium-high) and cook for 3-5 minutes until everything is getting pretty nice and cooked down.
Push your veggies to one side and add your chopped ham to let it sizzle for a minute. Add the roasted red peppers, green onion, garlic, and vinegar and cook for one more minute, tossing everything together.
Mix in your cooked pasta, a drizzle of olive oil, the fresh basil and half the feta. Finish by crumbling the remaining feta on top, along with some extra basil for garnish! ENJOY.
