Cool summer pasta salad

By MIO Coalition August 2024

Ingredients

1 package Della Terra Fusilli dry pasta
1 bunch broccolini stems, cut into 1 inch pieces
½ cup scallions, thinly sliced
1 cup Easy Vinaigrette

Easy Vinaigrette Dressing

3/4 cup olive oil
¼ cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Seikel’s Oklahoma Gold mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh Scissortail Farms herbs (parsley, oregano, thyme or your favorite)
Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

Easy Vinaigrette Dressing – Vigorously whisk together olive oil, vinegar and mustard. Whisk in herbs, salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning to taste. (This vinaigrette keeps in the refrigerator two weeks.)

For the salad – Cook the pasta using the directions provided on the package. In the last minute of cooking, add the broccolini and finish the cooking time. Drain and, while warm, add all other ingredients. Gently mix, then allow 15 minutes for cooling. Refrigerate.

Note: This salad is wonderful with chicken and Ace in the Bowl Salsa as a sauce.
