Sun-dried tomatoes and olives enhance this delicious pesto-inspired salad which is just as tasty served warm or cold. When using pasta in a salad, it is important to rinse the cooked pasta with cold water and drain it well. Toss a little oil through the pasta to stop it from sticking together. Elaborations of a pasta salad are many. You may add slivers of vegetables, a few herb leaves (particularly basil), or other refinements such as sun-drenched tomatoes or olives. Serves dressed with olive oil and lemon juice. So with a little imagination, you can create your own salad recipe!
