Take a Vacation with Greek Pasta Salad

Are you traveling anywhere cool this summer? I dont have any summer trip plans coming up but I really have dreams about the Amalfi coast. Oh and Greece. When I take breaks during the day, Ill often times jump on Instagram and just stare at photos of Santorini. I love the colors: blue and white. I also love the green and blue ocean and steep cliffside views.

I want to go and live in a summer hat and eat fresh cheese topped with olive oil and crispy cucumbers by the ocean.

BUT, Im probably not going to go on a summer trip at all this summer. And if I do, its definitely NOT going to be to Greece, unfortunately. Maybe next year! I can hope! So Im trying to make that flavor come to meand adding carbs. This pasta salad (my favorite category of salad) has all those fresh flavors in it and its great for a bbq or to make ahead.

And since it isnt mayo-based, it pleases a lot of mayo-hating people. It also makes it a super light and refreshing pasta salad, which is a-ok with me.
