Summer is here with a vengeance, and honestly it’s not my favourite time of the year. It’s the only time I want to be as far away from my kitchen as possible.
This delicious Pasta Salad is the perfect summer recipe that comes together effortlessly and is such a winner in our home. Simply serve your favourite pasta (I have used whole grain bow tie), your favourite vegetables or salad greens (I’ve used Olives, Cucumber, Cherry Tomatoes, Red Bell Peppers), add fresh Basil or whatever herbs you happen to have. Some delicious crumbly Feta cheese, some nuts and seeds of your choice, a generous drizzle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and a squeeze of Lime. You can also add some mustard and honey or any other vinaigrette/ salad dressing of your choice.
And here you have it, a beautiful vibrant delicious and healthy meal, ready for you and your family in minutes.
If you are tired of eating baked Feta Pasta, try this for a change 😉
