Hi Fellow Foodies,
It's so hot out that you want a dish that will go well with your iced cold drink. This fresh, chilled and sooooo easy pasta is the trick! I love this easy dish because it works as a side or as a main meal, whichever you prefer. Bring this to a BBQ to add a bit of color to the table!
Ingredients:
- 1/2 package of pasta (I prefer rotini or bow-tie for this dish but choose anything you fancy!)
- 1 package of pre-washed spinach, chopped
- 1 cup grape tomatoes cut in half
- 1/2 cup of canned sliced olives, drained
- juice of 1/2 a lemon
- 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Cook the pasta according to package directions
- add the spinach, tomatoes, olives, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, then toss until the pasta is mixed and coated.
- chill for 1/2 an hour then serve.
Voila! That's it! Add less or more of the above ingredients to suit your taste. How health is this?! And so fresh! All the pretty colors promise that this dish is loaded with anti-oxidants!
Thank you for visiting my kitchen and see you next time:)
XoX,
Marikym
