Greek Pasta Salad
- 1 package 500g Fusilli Pasta (or Any Similar Past That You Like That Has Lots Of Grooves To Catch The Flavour!)
- 1 whole Cucumber, Peeled And Chopped
- 1 whole Green Pepper, Cored And Chopped
- 1 whole Red Pepper, Cored And Chopped
- 2 wheels Medium Tomato, Cored And Chopped
- 1 whole Red Onion, Peeled And Chopped
- 12 whole Kalamata Olives
- 1 teaspoon Kalamata Olive Brine (from The Jar)
- 1 whole Lemon, Juiced
- 1/4 cups Olive Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Dried Oregano
- 3 cloves Garlic, Minced Or Crushed
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoons Pepper
- 1 tub 175g Feta Cheese
- Bring salted water to a boil. Cook pasta al dente, as per the directions on the packaging.
- When the pasta is done, strain it and rinse it under very cold water. This will stop the cooking process.
- In a large bowl, add the pasta and the chopped vegetables and olives.
- In a small bowl mix the olive brine, lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, garlic, salt and pepper. I've given amounts for the salt and pepper, but you can do it to taste. Keep in mind how salty your feta may be.
- Add the dressing to the pasta and vegetables and mix.
- Cut up your feta into small bite size cubes, or you can break it with your hands if it is crumblier.
- If you have crumbly feta, add it 3/4 of the way through your mixing. If it is a less crumbly feta, you can add it about 1/2 of the way through.
