Love this mediterranean style pasta salad! Marinated artichoke hearts, olives, and feta cheese were a delicious combination. The cherry tomatoes and broccoli add the fresh taste, sometimes we add several strips of roasted bell pepper, or freshly sliced mushrooms, or a few coarsely chopped sun-dried tomatoes.

Brought this salad to a pot luck recently, everyone raved about it. It was easy, simple, refreshing and delicious.

A quick and easy summer salad is made with sweet and juicy cherry tomatoes, fresh and aromatic basil and mozzarella, then tossed with a balsamic vinaigrette. Fresh mozzarella is always the best, but feel free to use normal mozzarella if you don't have any fresh one on hand.

Summer squash, zucchini and fennel bulb are all freshly seasonal. Fire up the BBQ, grill these fresh vegetables, toss with juicy cherry tomates, a light and tasty vinaigrette and feta cheese. You can pair it with any grilled meat. Next day the leftover can be wrapped into wraps, or tortillas, or topping for pizza, another quick, easy and delicious meal!

This is one of our favorite salad recipes too, quick, easy and delicious. It goes well with almost all the main course. Sometimes we just have it as a light meal and add some croutons on top.

This is a great cold salad. The basil and cherry tomatoes marry perfectly with a high-quality sweet balsamic vinegar along with tender-crisp green and yellow wax beans.

This easy and tasty vinaigrette is so versatile. It can be used as a salad dressing, a light, tasty and refreshing drizzle over cooked fish, or tossed with pasta.

Quick and easy way to make a plateful refreshing and flavorful salad. Mixed greens, cucumber, and radish are mixed with basil balsamic dressing, topped with shaved parmesan.

A good combination, and very quick and easy to make!

Fresh Green Pasta Salad recipe

The health benefits of green papaya exceed those of the ripe variety. Raw green papaya is packed with vitamins, enzymes and phytonutrients. It contains vital nutrients including potassium, magnesium, and vitamins A, C, E and B. However, perhaps the most important health property of green papaya is its ability to improve digestion and the uptake of nutrients, raising enzyme levels and improving assimilation, and thus also strengthening the immune system. Green papaya contains two of the most powerful plant proteolytic enzymes: papain and chymopapain. These enzymes excel at breaking down proteins, fats and carbohydrates, as well as aiding healthy digestion. Papain can only be found in the papaya fruit and is more effective than pepsin produced by our own stomachs.

Cherry tomatoes, basil, fresh mozzarella are always a delicious combination, here by spinning out the juice from cherry tomatoes to make the salad tasty but not watery. You can use this technique in all the tomato salads. And the reduction of the tomato juice adds the tangy flavor to the dressing.

Very nice salad, everytime let all of my family satisfied and happy, healthy and tasty.
