Preparation

Step 1

Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and cool for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk all of the poppy seed dressing ingredients together.
Stir the remaining pasta salad ingredients in with the pasta. Toss with dressing. Add a little more feta and almonds if you wish. (I like a little extra cheese!)
Cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Tastes best on day 2 or 3, so it's perfect to make ahead of time!
