RECIPE VIDEO
Ingredients:
– 1 package of pasta of choice (or omit completely), I used THIS BRAND
– 1 cup of chopped parsley, lightly packed
– 1/2 of a red onion, thinly sliced in a mandolin (this is key if you dont’ like red onions – thinly slicing them helps alot!)
– desired amount of mini organic bell peppers, sliced
– desired amount of cherry tomatoes, cut in half
– desired amount of quarter artichoke hearts
– desired amount of pitted kalamata olives
– desired amount of chopped or crumbled feta or bulgarian cheese (i used THIS ONE)
– 1 to 2 packages (depending on how much you want) of Bilinski (pork-free) Italian chicken sausages, sliced and sauteed
For the dressing:
– 1/4 cup of Kasandrinos organic EVOO (25% off code: LS25)
– 2 Tbsp of Kasandrinos jalapeno balsamic vinegar (or any of their other flavors like their raspberry one – so good!)
Method:
1. Cook pasta until al dente according to directions and drain the water and allow to cool while you prepare the rest of your ingredients.
2. Mix the cooled pasta in a large bowl along with the remaining ingredients.
3. Mix dressing ingredients together and pour over your salad. Give the salad a good toss and enjoy!
*This is a great recipe to make ahead for a party or gathering or even for meal prep!
