I just made this last night and it is my new favorite pasta salad.  Very light and yummy, perfect for these hot summer days!!!  Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces, weight Farfalle (bowtie) Pasta
  • 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 whole Lemons (more To Taste)
  • Salt
  • Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 2 whole Zucchini, Cut Into Small Wedges Or Diced
  • 10 ounces, weight Grape Tomatoes, Halved Lengthwise
  • 1/3 cup Minced Fresh Parsley
  • 6 ounces, weight Crumbled Feta Cheese

Preparation Instructions

Cook pasta until done. Drain and rinse in cold water until completely cool. Add olive oil and lemon juice, then add salt and pepper to taste (do not under salt). Toss to combine. Add zucchini, tomatoes, parsley, and feta, and toss to combine. Add more of what you think it needs; I like to go heavy on the feta! Squeeze in a little more lemon juice/drizzle more olive oil if it needs more moisture.

Cover in plastic wrap for at least a couple of hours. Pasta is best when chilled for a few hours before serving.
