Greek Pasta Salad (Creamy Feta Dressing)

Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted water as per package instructions and drain, ensure to save some of the pasta cooking water. Allow to cool slightly
In the meantime, prep the veggies. Slice the tomatoes in halves or quarters depending on their size, slice cucumbers into half moons, and finely chop the parsley and red onion. Slice the olives in half and cut the peppers into thin strips
Optional to soak the onion in a bowl of water for 10 minutes to remove harsh flavor
Once the pasta has cooled but is still slightly warm, add to a large bowl with the parsley, 2 tablespoons of olive oil and a few spoons of the pasta cooking water. Stir through so the pasta is not stuck together
Add the dressing ingredients to a blender and blend until a smooth creamy dressing. You can also use an immersion blender
Once cooled, add the chickpeas to the pasta and pour over the dressing, stir through well until everything is nicely coated
Add the tomatoes, cucumbers, onion, peppers and most of the olives, give it a really good toss together
Garnish with the remaining olives and crumble over the feta cheese, and serve up your fresh delicious Greek Pasta Salad!
