Add asparagus to boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and immediately transfer to ice-water bath to cool. Drain and cut on the bias into 1-inch pieces.
  • Meanwhile, bring a second large pot of water to a boil over high heat; generously salt water and return to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water.
  • Transfer pasta to a large bowl. Add asparagus, watercress, tomatoes, and lemon zest. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper; toss to combine. Top with feta and serve.

WACKY MAC PASTA SALAD

This is an easy and pretty simple recipe. I kind of made it up as I went along. It is easily modified for your taste. Some times I add Rotel if I have it if not I don't. It's the base of the pasta salad and then I build from there. Enjoy
