1 lb. cooked spaghetti, held warm
1/4 c. olive oil
4 cloves garlic, crushed
4 green onions, sliced thin
1 c. cherry tomatoes, split in half and seeded
1 handful coarsely chopped fresh spinach
1 c. crumbled feta cheese
1 Tbsp. oregano
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 pound butter

Place the cooked spaghetti in the bowl you are going to serve it in. Heat a sauté pan and quickly sauté in the olive oil the garlic followed by the green onions and then the cherry tomatoes. Lastly, add the spinach and as soon as the spinach is cooked - this only takes a few seconds - pour the whole thing over the spaghetti.

Sprinkle and distribute the feta cheese and oregano over the spaghetti and toss like a salad. Season with salt and pepper. Add the butter to the pan you used for sautéing and brown it. Do not burn it, just brown it. Then drizzle over the spaghetti and enjoy.
