Pasta Salad

Easter was glorious first time ever at this time of the year.
I don’t remember any easter with decent amount of sunshine .

Too many easter events going on and I was more busier then normal school days as i tend to involve in many events as my child likes to be out in the sun and enjoyyy!!
He is such a happy child that i sometimes learn things from him.I love to watch him talk to his dad, help in gardening, cleaning our cars.
He is never indoors when its bright and sunny.
He loves his walks, biking n strolling along the beach with us when its a holiday.
I try to find some local events going on at that time to make him enjoy.
This time we all went to animal rescue centre which was our family dayout for easter.
But the only drawback is i don’t like pets and he and rocky loves them.
Noel keeps on asking for a pet for his birthday, every birthday comes and goes but i am not giving in!
I know i am being mean to them but i know i just can’t stand pets.
So i planned this day out to slowly change my inhibitions i had till now .
May be i won’t be ready for one imme and atleast i am giving it a go and see where this will take me.
I know this is gonna be superb funday for noel at the animal centre.Fingers crossed!!

Coming to my recipe:
I made this healthy pasta salad for our dinner yesterday n it was delicious.
Noel was a bit picky with the size of vegetables, i should have cut them into small pieces but the taste was amazing.

I used whatever vegetables i had in my fridge.They were all so fresh that i couldn’t resist a pasta with these healthy veggies!!

Boil pasta in water and run it under cold water so that they don’t stick together and keep aside.

Take a tablespoon of oil and fry vegetables for a while or until they cooked.

Now add pasta to it and garnish with oregano and parmesan cheese.have it as hot or cold pasta salad.

As we had glorious sun thru out the weekend, i didn’t want to spend time in the kitchen cooking arduous dinners.

Tried this healthy pasta for our lunch and it was very tasty and both my kid and hubby loved it.
