Feta Pasta Salad with Spinach
A warm pasta salad with spinach, feta and and black olives. Wilt the spinach by pouring the pasta water over it. I usually serve this warm but it makes a good cold salad as well.
Ingredients
Serves: 8
- 1 box (500g) farfalle pasta
- 1 bunch spinach, washed and torn
- 60g feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 red onion, chopped
- 220g black olives, pitted and chopped
- 1/2 cup (125ml) extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons (60ml) balsamic vinegar
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

- In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta until al dente. Place spinach in a colander. Drain the cooked pasta over the spinach so that the spinach wilts. Shake to drain completely.
- In a large bowl, combine the pasta, spinach, feta, red onion and olives.
- Whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic, lemon juice and pepper. Pour over salad and toss.

Altered ingredient amounts. THIS WAS DELICIOUS!!! It was a hit at brunch. I got a lot of great feedback. I made a few changes. I used about half of a small red onion (less is better). I love feta cheese so I used more. - 08 Oct 2008
This is a recipe that is sure to become a family favourite and will be wonderful for summer barbecues and picnics since it can be made ahead of time and looks so pretty and tastes great!! - 08 Oct 2008
I brought this to a party and watched it disappear. I used wholewheat fusilli pasta, and it added a nice texture. Use the biggest bowl you have to mix--until the spinach breaks down in the dressing--as the volume is enormous. - 08 Oct 2008
