Pasta Salad with Raw Zucchini, Tomatoes, Kidney Beans and Sausage

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta until al dente according to the instructions on the packet. Then drain and let cool.
  2. Wash all vegetables. Grate the zucchini thinly with a cucumber slicer. Dice the tomatoes. Wash the kidney beans under running water. Peel the onion and cut into small cubes together with the sausages (or choose other spicy sausage to taste) Add everything to the pasta. Salt, pepper and season with balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Mix well and leave to stand in the refrigerator for about 1 hour.
  3. Then do a taste test, if necessary, add seasoning. Chop the fresh chives and basil and add just before serving.
  4. I invented this salad to be the master of my zucchini. And - it was surprisingly well received.
