Pasta Salad, Greek (D, TNT)
Source: A neighbor
Serves: About 8

1 pound spinach pasta curly noodles, cooked, rinsed and drained
1 red bell pepper, sliced in thin strips, roasted first then peeled
1 jar or can black olives, drained
1/2 box cherry or grape tomatoes, cut in halves if large
1 4 to 6-ounce package feta cheese, rinsed to cut the salt, then sliced
1 red onion, sliced thinly or 2 scallions, chopped

Dressing:
1/3 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried mint
Salt
Pepper

Combine the pasta with the bell pepper, black olives, onions, tomatoes, and feta cheese.

Mix the dressing ingredients and combine all. Taste for salt and pepper and adjust the oil, vinegar mixture. The bell pepper juices may be enough without more vinegar.

About the dressing: you may also use instead of the dressing here a bottled Greek oil and vinegar dressing.

Poster's Notes:
For the request for a pasta salad, here is one that someone brought to a neighborhood party, I requested the recipe and have made it many times since.
