Summer is the time for family gatherings and picnics. Everyone always wants to contribute a meal, but doesn’t want to bring a dish that will spoil in the hot sun. This is a great option. It’s the perfect make-ahead salad for a picnic or a summer party. If you haven’t been to the Mediterranean, this salad will bring you there in one delicious bite. I love the combination of flavors: fresh dill, olive oil, and seasonings paired along side salty, crumbly feta cheese and Kalamata olives.  You can serve it cool or warm. If you serve it warm add the cheese last, once the pasta has cooled.  Try my Mediterranean Penna Pasta Salad.
