Purim is over and Passover is right around the corner. Every year you come up with new ideas and creative recipes to finish the chametz before clearing your kitchen and making it kosher for Passover.
If you have a lot of pasta hanging around, I have the perfect solution. Whip up a pasta salad for the spring season, it’s light, colorful and refreshing - what more could you ask for?
I like to keep my salad dressing very simple, nothing but olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. The salad is parve and fits all types of meals. If you want to upgrade it to a dairy meal, you can add baby mozzarella balls or crumble feta cheese to the salad.
The salad flavors are very Mediterranean and the salad is very filling, because of the pasta obviously. It’s great as a stand alone meal that tastes oh so good.
