Simple Pasta Salad

I love throwing together a simple pasta salad when I know I'll be grilling.  It's an easy and filling side dish that you can do ahead of time which is always a plus!  This version is based off Greek flavors which I think are always bright, light and savory.  You can easily add or sub out ingredients to suite your mood.

Here's the one I made this time:

Simple Pasta Salad
Serves 4

Ingredients:
1/2 lb rotini pasta
2 T chopped kalmata olives
2 oz crumbled feta cheese
1 small green onion chopped
1/4 cup red onion diced small
1/2 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
2-3 T Italian Dressing (I used Newmans Tuscan Italian)

Directions:
Cook pasta according to package, drain and set aside to cool completely.

In a bowl mix together ingredients through tomoatoes.  Once pasta cools, add to the bowl of ingredients and toss with dressing.  Make sure pasta is cool or you will melt the cheese.

That's it - how easy!!!
