PASTA SALAD WITH CAPERS

Pasta Salad with Capers is a delightful Mediterranean dish that brings the flavors of Italy straight to your plate. It features al dente pasta, likely fusilli or farfalle, which serves as the perfect backdrop for the zesty and briny capers, creating bursts of flavor in every bite. Complemented by the sweetness of cherry tomatoes, the crispness of fresh cucumbers, and the peppery punch of arugula, each ingredient adds depth and complexity to the salad.
