Easy Vegetarian Pasta Salad

Step 1

Start by cooking your pasta, bring a large pot of water to a boil and add your pasta and a little bit of salt.  I don’t always salt my pasta water, but I find is important when making pasta salad because it really does add lots of flavor.  Cook pasta according to package directions, drain and rinse with cold water.  Set aside until read to use.  I like to mix the pasta with a small amount of olive oil so that it doesn’t stick together, but it’s up to you.

Step 2

Once the pasta has cooled a little bit, add it to a large bowl.  Next, dice up all your vegetables and fresh herbs and add those on top of the pasta, along with the feta cheese.

Step 3

Make your dressing: add all the dressing ingredients to a medium sized bowl and whisk together until combined.  Pour dressing over the pasta and veggies and mix everything together well.  Taste and season with extra salt and pepper if needed.
