This Mediterranean Pasta Salad recipe is quick and easy to make, it’s tossed with a zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette, and it’s always a crowd-pleaser!

Mediterranean Pasta Salad

dry pasta (I used farfalle)

cucumber,

pint cherry or grape tomatoes, halved

kalamata olives

feta cheese

half of a medium red onion, peeled and thinly sliced

extra virgin olive oil

red wine vinegar

lemon juice

dried oregano,

honey (or your desired sweetener)

garlic cloves, minced

freshly-cracked black pepper

salt

red pepper flakes

Cook the pasta al dente in a large stockpot of generously-salted water according to package instructions.  Drain pasta, then rinse under cold water for about 20-30 seconds until no longer hot.  Transfer the pasta to a large mixing bowl.

Add cucumber, tomatoes, kalamata olives, feta cheese, and red onion to the mixing bowl, then drizzle all of the vinaigrette evenly on top.  Toss until all of the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.

Serve immediately, garnished with extra feta and black pepper if desired.

To Make The Lemon-Herb Vinaigrette:

Such a good salad. I used bow tie pasta and 2 tsps.of honey. Awesome.

Very good and easy. Even my kids enjoyed this recipe. Thanks!!

This was a hit! Delicious and the longer it’s in the dressing the better.

Taste delicious, very easy to make and healthy too. Thank you

Have made this a couple times for meal prep, and I always seem to come back to it and make it again and again.

Question: could you add spinach to this as well? Or would it not be good with spinach?

Prefect recipe. I love this.  I actually brought it to my local Mediterranean restaurant to have them try it.  They loved it. The only problem I had was, it was a little dry.  I asked the restaurant what I needed to do so it wasn't so dry and she said to coat the noodles first with olive oil when they're cold,  then add the vinaigrette.  I did that,  and it came out perfect.

Super easy to throw together! I only had a box of chickpea rotini on hand and it worked perfectly! Super tasty! This is a keeper for sure!!

I don’t usually leave comments, but I made this last night for a July 4th party and it was DELICIOUS! So fresh and the flavors were amazing! It was a hit!

This recipe is perfect simple and easy it is also forgiving but I would say stick to ingredients in dressing it is perfect

It's unfortunate, that I don't possess the vocabulary to express how delicious this salad is.  You'll just have to take my word for it.  It's so good, and a new favorite.

Awesome recipe!!! Took it to book club and everyone loved it! Thank you
