To make The New Italian Pasta Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
In a small jar, mix the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt and pepper together. Store it in the fridge, until you're ready to use it.
In a pot of. Boiling water, cook the pasta for between 9-15 minutes, according to the directions on the package. Drain and rinse under cold water.
In a large bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, sun dried tomatoes, black olives, chopped basil, garlic and arugula and toss well.
Add the cheeses and carefully toss again, ensuring the cheese doesn’t crumble too much.
Toss the salad in the prepared salad dressing, just before serving! (Dressing the salad before will wilt the vegetables.)
