simple Greek pasta salad
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1 box rotini {or other small pasta}
- 2 Roma tomatoes
- 1 bell pepper {any color}
- ½ seedless cucumber
- ¼ cup onion finely chopped
- 1 cup marinated feta and olives*
- juice of ½ lemon
- 3-4 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- *I bought my marinated feta and olives at my grocery store's olive bar. If you don't have an olive bar you can easily sub in ½ cup canned olives and add some plain feta cheese!*
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- In the meanwhile, wash and dry all your veggies. Cut the tomatoes, bell pepper, and cucumber into small even cubes.
- Place the veggies in a large bowl, then combine with the onion, lemon juice, olive oil, olives & feta, and seasoning. Mix well, then mix in the pasta.
- Toss everything together, and add more oil if needed.
- Serve immediately or for more flavor, cover the bowl, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Enjoy!
