Pasta With Red Peppers and Feta
Here's another recipe to try from That Was Too Much Wine For A Wednesday, Actually
My mom gave me this recipe. I would consider it easy but for the fact that you have to put it in a food processor. But on the plus side, you don't have to cut up the peppers and onions too finely or carefully. I think you could add sauteed pieces of chicken, and/or sauteed vegetables to make it heartier. You can also make the sauce ahead and then heat it up before mxing it with the pasta and feta.
