6th Step

Cover and refrigerate the pasta salad for at least one to two hours before serving. Chilling the salad enables the flavors to combine and improves its flavor. Before serving, give the salad a fast stir to redistribute the vinaigrette and ensure that every ingredient is coated.

VARIATIONS:

To make the pasta salad more filling, try adding some grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu.

If you’re looking to change the taste, try substituting mozzarella or goat cheese for the feta.

For more flavor, try roasting some veggies like zucchini or eggplant and adding them to the stew.

Add a couple of tablespoons of mayonnaise or Greek yogurt if you like a creamier dressing.
