PENNY'S PASTA SALAD
Updated: Feb 10
Sometimes when I go to the market I see these bland OVERPRICED deli salads that just don't add anything to my meal. Why not make your own that's full of flavor, healthy & easy on the wallet! It pairs perfectly with Grilled Chicken, Fish or alongside a Burger. All you need is a few pantry staples along with a package of United With Earth's Mission Figs! Let's get cooking!
Shopping List:
United With Earth Mission Figs
Red Onions
Feta Cheese
Orzo Pasta
Your favorite Salad Dressing (Italian preferred)
Cucumber
Green Onion
Basil or Mint for Garnish
Recipe:
-Cook 1 cup Orzo Pasta in salted, boiling water for 6-8 minutes.
-While that's cooking, chop up 1/2 English cucumber (de-seeded), 1/2 red onion and 2 Green Onions.
-Drain Pasta and let it cool for 5 minutes.
-Add 1/4 cup of Salad Dressing, Veggies and mix. Add Salt & Pepper to taste, but not too much, as we're adding 1/4 cup of Feta Cheese. Store in the fridge until ready to eat. It's even better the following day!
-Garnish with Mint or Basil right before serving.
-ENJOY!
