Spread the love

Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 200 g pasta
  • 200 g feta cheese
  • 200 g cocktail tomatoes
  • e.g. olive oil
  • 4 sprigs of thyme
  • 4 sprigs of oregano
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 50 g pine nuts
  • Pepper, freshly ground
  • Salt

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Rest time approx. 12 hours; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 12 hours 35 minutes

Cook the pasta in salted water, drain, and let cool. Dice or crumble the feta cheese, halve or quarter the cherry tomatoes depending on their size. Peel and press the garlic or chop it finely. Pick and finely chop the thyme and oregano leaves. Roast the pine nuts in a dry pan. Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix with a few tablespoons of olive oil to taste. Season with salt and pepper. Let the salad marinate for a few hours, or ideally overnight. Tip: If you like, you can add olives and/or chili peppers to the salad. For a juicier salad, stir in 100-200g of natural yogurt as a dressing. Feel free to add more seasoning, as the yogurt absorbs some of the flavor.
