Subj : 10/1 Vegetarian Day - 2 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Wed Sep 29 2021 10:16:58 October 1: World Vegetarian Day MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Pasta Salad w/Rocket & Tomato Dressing Categories: Salads, Pasta, Vegetarian Yield: 4 Servings 4 Ripe tomatoes; peeled, 2 in - wedges, 2 seeded & chopped - fine 2 cl Garlic; chopped fine 2 oz (60 g) rocket leaves; coarse - chopped 1 tb Olive oil 8 oz (240 g) penne pasta Salt & fresh ground pepper Freezing not recommended. You don't have to travel to Italy to enjoy wild rughetta, a spiky green-leaved plant with a strong peppery flavour. Most supermarkets now sell rocket, a slightly milder cultivated variety. If you can't find it, use spinach or a mixture of lamb's lettuce and watercress. Place the tomatoes, garlic and rocket leaves in a bowl. Add the olive oil and season well with the salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Cook the pasta in plenty of lightly salted boiling water for 8 - 10 minutes until al dente. Rinse well with cold water and drain thoroughly. Toss the pasta with the chilled tomato mixture and serve. Cook's notes: Serve this salad warm - simply toss the hot, drained pasta into the chilled tomato sauce. If they are available, plum tomatoes taste delicious in this recipe. Variation: Sprinkle each serving with 1/2 oz (15 g) grated parmesan cheese.
