Vegan Greek Pasta Salad >> Dianne's Vegan Kitchen
Full of fresh vegetables, beans and vegan feta, this hearty Greek Pasta Salad makes a great meal on it’s own, but it’s also a perfect side dish for summer picnics and cookouts!

Vegan Greek Pasta Salad

Greek Pasta Salad

Most Greek pasta salads are made with a red wine vinaigrette, which I find quite tasty, however, I just can’t stop myself from drizzling this kind of meal with a tahini dressing. Actually, I’ll look for just about any excuse to drench my food in tahini.

Versatile Recipe

This pasta salad is very versatile, so if you don’t like cucumbers, you can use something else, such as zucchini or summer squash. If you prefer white beans to chickpeas, feel free to make the swap. I like to use my Tofu Feta in this dish, but if you have a favorite store-bought vegan cheese, feel free to use it instead.

I like to make this dish on hot days and serve it for dinner over a bed of chopped romaine lettuce. I also like to take it with me to summertime potlucks or serve it as a side dish to grilled eggplant wraps.

    This looks so much more fun than a mayo-based pasta salad!

    Looks amazing, Dianne! I love all the flavors you put together. I need to search for some gluten-free bow tie pasta. Otherwise I’ll use penne.

    I’m so into tahini dressing right now. Your pasta salad is the perfect summer meal.
