Ingredients
- 300 g Pasta shapes
- 1 green bell pepper diced
- 0.5 cucumber diced
- 0.5 red onion thinly sliced
- 8 cherry tomatoes halved
- 55 g Mixed olives
- 60 g feta crumbled
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 lemon (Juice and zest only)
- 1 Pinch sea salt and ground black pepper
- 2 garlic clove crushed
- 10 g fresh dill finely chopped
Instructions
- Add 300 g Pasta shapes to a pan of lightly salted boiling water and simmer for 12 minutes and then drain and rinse under cold water.
- Put the pasta, 1 Green bell pepper, 0.5 Cucumber, 8 Cherry tomatoes and 55 g Mixed olives into a large mixing bowl.
- Add 0.5 Red onion, 2 Garlic clove, 10 g Fresh dill, 3 tablespoon Olive oil, 2 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar, 1 Pinch Sea salt and ground black pepper and the juice and zest of 1 Lemon.
- Mix well.
- Crumble 60 g Feta on top just before serving.
Notes
- If you are not a fan of feta, you could use chunks of cheddar or parmesan instead or even grilled halloumi.
- If you want to give this salad a bit of a protein boost, add some slices of grilled chicken or a salmon fillet on top.
- Turn this in to a creamy pasta salad by using a creamy salad dressing instead. A ranch or Caesar would work well.
- Make sure you cook the pasta to just al dente and then rinse it in cold water to stop it cooking further.
- If raw red onion is a little much for you, then you could soften it in a little oil, or swap it for shallots.
