Name: Pasta Salad with Broad beans
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 20 min
Total time: 30 min
Yield: 4
Ingredients: 300 g (gluten free) pasta; 300 g podded broad beans; 1 jar chargrilled artichokes; 1 tbsp sugar; 1 tbsp white wine vinegar; 100 g pitted black olives, halved; 2 red onions, peeled and sliced; 3 spring onions, sliced; 150 g Bute Island Greek Style Sheese

Preparation

Cook the pasta following the instructions on the bag. Drain and leave to cool.

Pod the broad beans and cook them for around 3 - 5 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water. I never remove the outer layer, this is where all the goodness lies! And they are just as tasty with the second skin intact. Saves you time too, by the way!

Drain the artichokes, but keep the oil.

Heat 2 tbsp of the artichoke oil in a pan, add the onions and the sugar and fry on a low heat for around 8 minutes. Leave to cool.

Make a simple dressing by combining the rest of the artichoke oil with the white wine vinegar.

Toss together all the ingredients and top with the Greek Style Sheese.

This recipe has all the food groups you need for a nutritious meal: carbohydrates from the pasta, vitamins from the vegetables, protein from the Sheese and a little bit of oil. If you prefer, you can serve it with crusty bread, however this will mean the recipe is no longer gluten free.
