Week 25: Mix and match pasta salad
There used to be a time that pasta salad was my thing.
I brought it to every family dinner/BBQ because I could make it from a box and just knock it out in minutes.
But it was from a box and nothing is really good from a box.
We wanted to go for a picnic and needed something quick.
So I whipped out Food Network Magazine. (man, they should really sponsor me.)
I love their monthly Mix and Match section, and June's was pasta salad.
My version?
Penne pasta
Chicken
Cucumber
Tomatoes
Feta cheese
Garlic oil dressing (saute garlic, pinch of red pepper flakes and olive oil. Season with s & p)
I love how simple and easy it is and the endless possibilities. And we could use what we had just in our fridge.
Seem to simple? It really was. And it was perfect for a non-fussy picnic.
