Instructions
- Put 150 g Pasta into a pan of boiling water and simmer for 12 minutes. Drain, cool with cold water and set aside.
- Put 3 tablespoon Greek yogurt, 3 tablespoon Creme fraiche, juice of 1 Lime, 2 tablespoon Honey, 1 pinch Sea salt and ground black pepper, 1 tablespoon Olive oil and 1 tablespoon Water into a bowl and whisk until mixed.
- Put the cooked pasta, 160 g Sweetcorn, 120 g Black beans, 45 g Pickled jalapenos, 1 teaspoon Chipotle paste, 0.5 teaspoon Cumin, 0.5 teaspoon Paprika, 1 Green bell pepper, 1 Red bell pepper, 15 g Fresh coriander (cilantro), 100 g Feta and 1 Avocado into a bowl and mix well.
- Add the dressing and mix well. Crumble over more of the feta and serve.
Notes
- If you want to add some extra protein to this, and make it more of a whole meal rather than a BBQ side, then add some leftover chicken or grilled salmon. Leftovers from our Slow Cooker Whole Chicken work well in this.
- You could swap the chipotle baed dressing for an Italian one if you prefer.
