June, July, August are Summer months here. Those months kids have vacation and we can do all kinds of outdoor activities, rest of the year its light jacket or heavy jacket kind of days. So in summer days don't like to spend more time in the kitchen, just pack up something and hit the road for beach or trips. This pasta salad is easy to assemble and you can serve it cold and it has nothing in it which can go bad in hot summer days, so you can pack up this and enjoy your day. I made it for picnic so I have it in big batch but you can get idea of ingredients and ratio so use it as per your needs.

1 box of whole wheat penne pasta
1 6 oz. of box of crumbled feta cheese
1 jar of Artichokes in oil
4 Roma tomatoes cut in big chunks
3 cucumbers cut in big pieces
1 red onion finely chopped
10 jumbo black olives cut in circle
Dressing :
