Ingredients

  • 8 oz. gluten-free brown rice spirals or fusilli (I like Tinkyada)
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup halved cherry or grape tomatoes
  • 1 cup sliced scallions/green onions, green parts only (about 1 bunch)
  • 1/2 cup sliced kalamata or black olives
  • 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
  • 1 recipe Creamy Feta Dressing (see recipe above)

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil and add pasta. Cook according to package directions. Before draining the pasta, add the broccoli to the pasta water and bring back to a boil and cook for about 1 minute (this blanches the broccoli and takes away the "raw edge."). Drain pasta and broccoli into a strainer and rinse with cold water until completely cooled.
  • Place drained and cooled pasta and broccoli in a large bowl. Add the carrots, tomatoes, scallions, olives, red bell pepper, and Creamy Feta Dressing. Toss gently.
  • Chill and serve.
