Penne Pasta Salad



So this is my new favorite pasta salad. I used everything fresh when I made it. (Side note - Queso fresco cheese is found near the fresh mozzarella cheese in the store.) The amounts of each ingredient are all determined by personal preference.

Penne Pasta Salad

Queso fresco cheese, cubed
olive oil
Penne pasta, cooked according to package directions
Garlic, chopped
Cherry tomatoes, halved
Green beans, cooked, cooled and cut into bite size pieces
Fresh basil, chopped
Grated Parmesan (not Kraft but fresh)

Mix together all ingredients and serve.
