invisible pasta salad

I can't even tell you how good this pasta salad was, especially after sitting out at room temperature. It had about 3 tablespoons of an olive tapenade/mayo mixture in addition to all of these tasty ingredients, so it was mostly an herb-y salad rather than overly creamy or mayo-y.

The reason why there were no pictures of the actual pasta salad is... well... you wouldn't believe it... a huge eagle flew right in and grabbed all of the pasta salad... well maybe an eagle/hawk combo... and carried it off right before my eyes... i happened to see it because i was eating some lettuce leaves and celery sticks...


Ahem.


Ingredients: cherry tomatoes, sliced horizontally, garlic chives (you can use green onions), lots of black pepper, salt, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, lots of parsley and oregano, and a little bit of mayo. I'd be a little more generous than frugal on the oil and vinegar. after all, there isn't a lot else in there to flavor it.
