Ingredients

For the salad:

• 500g of Fiorelli pasta
• 5 Persian cucumbers
• 1 red pepper
• 1 green pepper
• 1⁄2 red onion
• 1 cup crumbled feta
• 1 can of chickpeas (540 mL)
• 1⁄2 cup kalamata olives
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes

For the dressing:

• 3⁄4 cup olive oil
• 1⁄4 red wine vinegar
• 3 tbsp greek yogurt
• 1 tbsp mayonnaise

• 2 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions

To prepare:

1. Combine your dressing ingredients in a mason jar and shake to combine.
2. Cook your pasta according to package instructions. Drain and rinse with cold water. Add a tablespoon of olive oil to the pasta and mix slightly to stop the pasta from sticking together while you prepare your veggies.

4. Combine your pasta, mix-ins and dressing and toss to combine. Enjoy!
