Add the olive oil, salt and pepper and toss until well combined.
Place the block of feta in the middle of the tomatoes. Flip it over to make sure its coated in oil.
Roast in the oven for around 30 minutes - until the feta is melty and tomatoes are starting to burst.
While the feta and tomatoes are roasting, cook the pasta according to packet instructions in salty water until al dente.
Drain and reserve ½ cup pasta cooking water in case you want to use this in the sauce.
Remove the feta and tomatoes from the oven. Stir them gently to combine.
Add the drained pasta and toss in the sauce, making sure it's nicely coated. Slowly add in some extra pasta cooking water if needed, to loosen the mixture.
