Ingredients

8 oz short cut pasta (I used ziti)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh chopped oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cups Arugula
1/2 English cucumber diced
1 cup Grape tomatoes halved
1/2 cup marinated artichoke hearts roughly chopped
1/2 cup Kalamata olives halved
1/2 cup crumbled Feta cheese
1/4 cup Sun dried tomatoes in oil drained and chopped
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts

Instructions

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt generously, then add the pasta. Cook according to package directions, until al dente. Drain.
While the pasta is cooking, combine the olive oil, vinegar, mustard, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper in a small jar with a lid. Shake until combined and emulsified.
Add the cooked, drained pasta to a large bowl. Add the arugula, cucumber, tomatoes, artichoke hearts, olives, feta cheese, sun dried tomatoes, and pine nuts.
Pour the dressing over the top of the bowl, then stir to combine all of the ingredients.
Serve right away, or refrigerate for a few hours for the flavors to meld together.
