Zest of a lemon
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon grated garlic
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound penne pasta

  • Make sure your salad is well-dressed: The dressing is what brings all the flavors of your salad together. Make sure to use enough dressing to coat all of the ingredients, but not so much that the salad is soggy.
