I had something similar at a deli yesterday, and this is my version of the recipe. The mint and lemon juice make this salad very refreshing, and the feta gives it a nice creaminess.
1 box shell pasta
1 quart grape tomatoes
1 English cucumber
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
4 scallions (green onions)
1 bunch chives
1/2 cup feta cheese
3 tbsp lemon juice
4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
spices (to taste): ground black pepper, oregano, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper
1. Prepare pasta. Drain and rinse.
2. Slice grape tomatoes lengthwise. Chop cucumber, chives, mint, basil, and scallions. Mix in a large bowl.
3. Prepare dressing by mixing olive oil, lemon juice, and spices.
4. Add dressing, pasta, and feta to vegetables. Stir together.
Allow to marinate overnight before serving.
