This recipe feeds a crew. Even when I don’t have a crew to feed, I often make the whole recipe, because this makes for a delicious cold pasta salad.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the tomato, basil, garlic, and olives.
3. Add pasta, feta and olive oil. Toss well and season to taste with salt and pepper.
