Honey Tips
How Honey Is Created
Honey is created when bees mix plant nectar, a sweet substance secreted by flowers, with their own bee enzymes.
Directions
Cook pasta according to package directions. Do not overcook. Drain, rinse under cold water, drain well again. In a large bowl, gently toss together cooked pasta, chopped tomatoes, scallions, olives and goat cheese. In a small bowl, whisk together vinegars and dried red pepper. Slowly whisk in olive oil, honey and basil. Toss dressing gently into pasta mixture. To make into a main dish salad, add 2 cups of cooked, diced chicken or turkey. Serves 4.
