In my easy holiday kitchen I show dishes like this pasta salad, that can easily and quickly be cooked somewhere else, in about 20 minutes, with ingredients from the supermarket and no fancy kitchen toys.

They work without onions and garlic, but of course it’s fine to add them.

Feel free to add tofu or any meat substitute oder beans or other veggies, anything you found in the shops and like, or still have in the fridge and want to use up, there’s endless variations of this dish. 

If you don’t know balsamic glaze yet, you really need to try it, it’s a thick syrupy sauce made of balsamic vinegar, it’s delicious on many dishes and sandwiches and I think it’s available everywhere meanwhile.

You can arrange the salad bowl style throw it all into the skillet together at the end: the pine nuts, the rocket salad, the tomatoes and loads of balsamic glaze and give it a good stir.

The pasta salad also tastes great when cooled off, so you can also put it in a box and take it somewhere.
