2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon dried dill

Freshly ground black pepper -- to taste

***REMAINING INGREDIENTS***

8 ounces ziti or penne

2 large firm ripe tomatoes -- diced

1/3 cup Greek black olives -- pitted and chopped

4 ounces crumbled feta cheese

Trading the lettuce customarily used in Greek salad for pasta makes it a

more substantial dish.

 

Combine the dressing ingredients in a small bowl, and stir together. Set

aside.

 

Cook the pasta in plenty of rapidly simmering water until al dente. Drain

and rinse under cool water, then drain well again.

 

Combine the pasta with the remaining ingredients and the dressing in a

serving bowl, and toss well. Cover and refrigerate until needed, or serve

at once.
