An excellent pasta salad, I love anything with olives and Feta cheese!
1 cup Fusilli pasta (preferably whole grain)
Quarter seedless cucumber
Half Sweet green pepper, coarsely chopped
6 Cherry Tomatoes, halved
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup canned chick peas, rinsed
1/2 cup Artichoke hearts, cut in bite size pieces
1/4 cup black olives, quartered
25 g Feta cheese, crumbled
Dressing:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp Red wine vinegar
2 tsp Lemon juice
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp Dried oregano
Salt and Pepper
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until tender but firm; drain and rinse under cold water. Drain again.
Place in bowl. Cut cucumber into 3/4 inch chunks. Add to pasta along with green pepper; tomatoes, green onions, chick peas, artichoke hearts, olives and feta cheese.
Dressing: Whisk together 1 tbsp water, oil, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic and oregano. Pour over salad; toss. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
