Pasta/Pizza - Tricolor Pasta Salad by Corina E. - Recipia

To prepare a delicious pasta salad, we start by boiling the pasta. Choose your preferred type of pasta, whether it's spaghetti, penne, or fusilli. Fill a large pot with water, add a tablespoon of olive oil, a teaspoon of vegetable seasoning, and a pinch of salt. These ingredients will not only flavor the water but will also help prevent the pasta from sticking together. Turn the heat to high and wait for it to reach a boiling point. When the water is boiling, add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions, usually between 8 and 12 minutes, until al dente. Once the pasta is cooked, drain it using a colander and let it cool slightly. Meanwhile, prepare the salad ingredients. Cut the ham into small cubes, making sure they are uniform to blend well into the mix. Feta cheese, an essential ingredient, can be cut into cubes or crumbled, depending on your preference. This will add a salty and creamy note to the salad. After you are done with the ham and cheese, chop the boiled eggs - two or three, depending on how rich you want the salad to be. Then, take the olives, preferably green or black, and slice them thinly. These will provide an intense flavor and a crunchy texture. In a large bowl, add the drained pasta, canned tuna (which can be in oil or water, depending on your preference), the ham cubes, feta cheese, olive slices, and chopped eggs. Gently mix all the ingredients with a silicone spatula or a wooden spoon, being careful not to crush the pasta or delicate ingredients. The pasta salad is now ready to serve! You can enjoy it immediately or leave it in the fridge to chill, knowing that the flavors will intensify even more. It is a perfect choice for a quick lunch, a light dinner, or even for a picnic. This recipe is not only simple but also very versatile; you can add fresh vegetables like bell peppers or tomatoes, or even spices like oregano or basil for an extra flavor boost. Enjoy!
