simple, vegetarian, perfect for work

Cook the pasta in salted water until al dente, or until tender. Dice the vegetables, herbs, and feta and place in a bowl. Add the corn, peas, and carrots to the fresh vegetables. Rinse the cooked pasta in cold water and add it to the rest of the pasta in the bowl. Mix everything together with a spoon. Now squeeze the lemon and add the juice. Tip: You can use a dressing or something similar, if you like, but I find it nice and refreshing with the lemon and mint. Perfect for the office, to go, or in the summer.
