I absolutely love pasta. . I could seriously eat pasta everyday. . If you like feta cheese, bell peppers and mint, you have to try this recipe. Again, found the recipe

in Cooking Light magazine, the March 2011 issue. I skipped on the pine nuts because they are expensive ($7 for a small bag) and because I wasn’t sure the girls would like them but next time I will definitely buy them.

 

This is a great, light and refreshing pasta dish. Goes great with a white wine and parmesan, asiago and rosemary rolls (Trader Joe’s).
