How to Make Awesome Bow Tie Pasta Salad
- Bring a large pot of salted water (about 6 quarts) to a rolling boil.
- Add 1 pound of bow tie pasta and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until al dente. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Drain the pasta and immediately rinse under cold water until completely cool. Drain well.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooled pasta, 1/2 cup chopped red onion, 4 ounces crumbled feta cheese, 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, 1/4 cup olive oil, and 1 1/2 cups chopped tomatoes (or 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved).
- Gently toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Optional: Add 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours to allow the flavors to meld before serving. Enjoy!
