Ingredients

10 servings
  • 12 ounces penne pasta (dried)
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (fresh squeezed)
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (finely chopped)
  • 2 teaspoons garlic (minced)
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pinch cracked pepper (to taste)
  • 4 cups Romaine lettuce (or cos lettuce leaves, washed and dried)
  • 1 cucumber (large, diced)
  • 1 avocado (peeled, pitted and chopped)

Steps

  1. Boil the pasta in a large pot of salted water until al dente. Drain in a colander or strainer, then rinse under cold water to take the heat out. Transfer the pasta to a large mixing bowl.

  2. While pasta is boiling, prepare your dressing. Whisk together all of the marinade/dressing ingredients in a large jug.

  3. Add all of the salad ingredients into the salad bowl along with the pasta, and drizzle with the dressing. Toss all of the ingredients together until everything is coated evenly in dressing. Season with extra salt and pepper, if desired.

  4. Serve immediately.
