Pasta salad has evolved over the years so much even the name. When I was a bride it was "Macaroni" salad and very limited. My pasta salads too have evolved to include the flavors I and my family and friends enjoy most. This recipe is my most requested "Pasta" salad.

How To Make my greek pasta salad

  • Step 1
    Boil pasta el dente. Drain, rinse with cold water, drain again and place into large bowl; set aside.
  • Step 2
    Drain black olives and set aside.
  • Step 3
    Cut up vegetables and add to the pasta; add black olives, artichokes (do not drain), feta cheese and Greek dressing. Mix well. Chill and serve.
  • Step 4
    Green bell pepper may be substituted for either of the other bell peppers. I sometimes add sweet banana pepper rings. This is the kind of salad that I use what is on hand or an ingredient that is on my mind.
