Lovely cold pasta (and cous-cous)! Good, cheap and versatile... One of my favourites too.

Here is what my favourite recipe finder came up with for pasta - http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/search?keywords=pasta&x=-1063&y=-240

It shows hot recipes as well, but loads of these are just as good if cooked and allowed to go cold.

As a preference, in summer, I love pasta with fresh sliced cherry tomatoes, torn Italian mozzarella (Sainsbury's value one is perfectly good from my meagre budget's point of view, not vastly different to the more expensive choices), couple of good glugs of extra-virgin olive oil, some basil or oregano (dried or fresh) and some fresh-ground black pepper. Yumyumyum...

Hope your OH appreciates your efforts (and how lucky they are to have you, of course) Sam x

Thanks for the recipe yum yum, cant wait to have a shufty through that website, very interesting.....and thanks so much for your very nice comment:ox

I mix any left over pasta with Garlic and Herb Dressing and either grated cheese or small pieces of tuna (or even both!) Very tasty.
