INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Cook the pasta in well salted water until just al dente, don't over cook. I usually cook it at least 2 minutes under the time listed on the package. Drain and rinse in cold water.
  2. Put the well drained (not dripping wet) pasta in a bowl and toss with a little olive oil so it doesn't stick together. Add the veggies, oregano, thyme, and salt and pepper. Hold out the feta cheese until the end.
  3. Add the 1/4 cup olive oil and lemon juice and toss well. Gently fold in the feta cheese.
