This pasta salad looks so mouth-watering good! Maybe it's the fun shaped pasta that intrigues me the most. Or maybe all the colors. All I know is I can't wait to try this...
Ingredients -
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 5 tablespoons olive oil
- 6 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
- 1 eggplant (1 1/2 pounds), cut into 1/2-inch slices
- 1 large red onion, cut into 1/2-inch slices
- 2 hot or sweet Italian sausages
- 8 ounces wagon-wheel pasta
Directions -
1. Prepare charcoal grill with medium-hot coals or heat gas grill to medium-high; coat rack with nonstick cooking spray. For dressing, whisk together 4 tablespoons of the oil, the vinegar, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
2. Brush tomatoes, eggplant, and onion with remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Pierce sausages several times with the point of a small knife. Grill vegetables and sausages, turning often, 13 to 15 minutes, or until sausages are no longer pink and vegetables are crisp-tender.
3. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions. Drain; place in a large bowl.
4. Remove vegetables from grill and chop into bite-size pieces; cut sausages into coins, then cut each coin in half. Add sausage and vegetables to pasta. Drizzle with dressing and toss to coat.
