    Roasted Vegetable Pasta Salad with Feta Cheese and a light honey and lemon dressing, a delicious vegetarian summer recipe that is light, yet filling, and healthy too. It goes well with the whole family, and can be enjoyed as a quick lunch, picnic or a light dinner. Absolutely delicious!

    We might not be able to fully enjoy the nice weather, but we can definitely switch from heavy dishes to lighter, summer recipes to give us the feeling of a normal life. It feels like we are totally skipping spring, and we have just made the jump from the horribly cold and stormy winter, to proper summer days.

    Not sure if the nice weather is indeed related to less pollution due to the present circumstances, but it's nice to see the sun shining almost every day. Even if from the window. And that gives us the perfect excuse to bring back our healthier summer dishes that are quick and easy to make. Not that we don't have plenty of time for elaborate dishes!

    These roasted vegetables have a nice Mediterranean kick to them, they make a great combo, and have a lovely taste, colour and texture put together. If I like each one of them separately, I absolutely love them roasted together.

    Throw in some good old pasta, some delicious feta or cow's cheese, a nice citrussy dressing, and you have one fine pasta salad that will be demolished in seconds. And even by meat lovers who would otherwise whinge about the lack of meat in a dish.

    How to make roasted vegetable pasta salad

    I love pasta salad cold from the fridge, but you can, of course, enjoy them warm too. But if you do like them cold, or at least at room temperature, cook the pasta first according to the packet instructions, drain, and set aside to cool.

    • Then cut the vegetables into chunks, drizzle olive oil over, and season with salt and pepper.
    • Roast in the preheated oven at 200 degrees Celsius (390 Fahrenheit) for 20-25 minutes or until tender.
    • To make the dressing, mix together the lemon juice, honey, minced garlic, dried herbs, salt and pepper, and shake well
    • In a large bowl, combine the cold pasta with the roasted vegetables, drizzle over the dressing, crumbled feta and fresh parsley and give it a good stir

    And that's our pasta salad ready. It's absolutely delicious, served in any way. Fancy a bbq now? I definitely do.

It goes well everyone in the fam, and can be enjoyed as a quick lunch, picnic or a light dinner. Absolutely delicious!
