Big batch family pasta salad

Ingredients:
  • For the honey-balsamic dressing - 4 tbsp SPAR olive oil, 2 tbsp SPAR honey and splash of balsamic vinegar
  • 300g farfalle pasta, cooked and cooled
  • 1 red pepper, sliced
  • 100g frozen peas, cooked & drained
  • 1x200g tin of sweetcorn, drained
  • 1x400g tin of chickpeas, drained
  • 3 handfuls of baby spinach
  • 100g SPAR feta cheese, crumbled (optional)
  • Salt & pepper, to season
Method:
  1. To make the honey-balsamic dressing, add all dressing ingredients to a jar and shake vigorously to combine.
  2. Add the cooked pasta to a large bowl and pour over the dressing.
  3. Add the pepper, peas, sweetcorn, chickpeas and baby spinach. Toss to combine well. Season with salt and pepper, add the crumbled feta (if using) and toss gently again.
  4. Store in a large lidded container until ready to eat, or portion into lunchboxes to keep the whole family going throughout the week. Best served cold.
  5. - If your family don’t love balsamic vinegar, swap it for a squeeze of lemon in the dressing.
  6. - You can switch up the veggies to suit your taste. Cherry tomatoes, red onion, sundried tomatoes and blanched broccoli all work well.
  7. - This salad can be kept for up to three days once stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
