List of Ingredients




1 9-ounce package refrigerated angel hair pasta or linguine
3 cups packaged mesclun or torn mixed salad greens
12 to 15 cherry tomatoes, halved
3/4 cup lightly packed fresh basil and/or Italian parsley, snipped
1/4 cup lightly packed fresh tarragon, savory, oregano, thyme, and/or chives, snipped
2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 of a lemon, cut into 3 wedges

1. Using kitchen scissors, cut pasta strands in half. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain in colander. Rinse with cold water; drain again. Transfer to a large bowl.
2. Add mesclun, tomatoes, and herbs to pasta. Drizzle with enough oil to coat, tossing gently. Season to taste with salt. Divide among 3 dinner plates. Season with pepper, if desired. Before serving, squeeze juice from a lemon wedge over each salad. Makes 3 main-dish servings.
