    Artichoke, Olive & Feta Pasta Salad

    I love how the Mediterranean flavors whisk me away to another place. I’m not sure that other flavors do that…but these flavors put images of far away places into my mind. A friend recently visited Cinque Terre in Italy and boy-oh-boy were her photos beautiful.

    Perhaps one day.

    One day.

    But for now, I’ll keep enjoying these flavors of the region!

    This pasta salad is divine…the snap and crunch from the capers, plus the salty tarty olives, plus the creamy feta…mixed in with a soft olive oil based homemade dressing…drooling over this and a dreaming of a vacationĂ‚ on the deep blue Mediterranean!
