This "recipe" is not so much specific quantities, but rather the ingredients, so tailor the seasonings to your tastes and pantry supplies. Feel free to add chopped onions or tomatoes. Make sure to add plenty of olive oil.
This is perfect for a summer picnic. To make this gluten-free, be sure to use brown rice pasta.

Add all of the ingredients to a bowl and toss to combine. Cool for an hour or two to allow the flavors to meld. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Mmm this looks like a lovely lunch recipe. Must make it sometime soon. I recently made pasta for lunch and added avocado cream sauce to the hot pasta. This is just basically ripe avocado mashed till creamy with a squeeze of lemon juice, salt and pepper and a bit of crushed garlic. Delish!! I would recommend it to anyone looking for a simple, healthy sauce for pasta. Serve with a liberal sprinkle of grated parmesan. I'm guessing it would be also good as a sauce to dress cold pasta salad. :-)
