Greek Pasta Salad
Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Total time: 30 minutes
INGREDIENTS
1 (16-ounce) package tri-color or
garden rotini pasta
1 small red onion, chopped
2 small summer squash, chopped
1 (2.25-ounce) can sliced black
olives, drained
1 (4-ounce) package feta cheese
crumbles
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
1 (14-ounce) bottle Greek
vinaigrette dressing
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Cook the pasta according
to the package instructions and
drain well.
2. Pour the pasta into a large
bowl and add the other ingredients.
3. Toss well and refrigerate
until serving.
4. If you're going to be serving
this the next day, wait until a few
hours before the meal to add the
dressing. If it sits in the refrigerator
for too long, the pasta absorbs all
of the dressing and the salad may
become a little dry.
