Today we have a fantastic weight watchers pasta salad with feta cheese and cilantro. This is a really tasty dish and full of goodness, vitamins and nutrition.
Once the water is boiling add your pasta bow ties and cook for around 20 minutes until soft.
Whilst cooking your pasta drain and measure out your sweetcorn and black beans. You can use frozen corn or canned corn, the weight watchers points are the same.
Chop your orange and green bell pepper, tomato, onion and cilantro and set aside.
Once the pasta is cooked, drain the water and add your pasta to a large mixing bowl.
Let the pasta cool for a few minutes, mixing occasionally so that the pasta doesn’t become sticky and hard.
Once the bow tie pasta is cooled, add in your drained corn, black beans, green pepper, tomato, onion, cilantro.
Now it’s time to create your low point weight watchers salad dressing.
Mix the yoghurt, lime, honey, cumin and paprika in a bowl or salad dressing bottle. Stir or shake the dressing until the ingredients are well mixed.
Add the dressing to your pasta dish.
Break up your Feta cheese and sprinkle over the top of your pasta, use a fork or salad spoons to mix the ingredients around in your bowl.
Your Weight Watchers healthy salad recipe is now complete. You can set this aside in the fridge or serve immediately. This could be a great salad lunch or be shared as a side dish with other food. Enjoy.
Notes
Let the salad chill in the fridge for at least an hour before serving. This helps the flavors come together and makes it even more refreshing.Fresh cilantro really takes the flavor up a notch, so if you can, go for fresh instead of dried.Feel free to swap the green pepper for red or yellow for a colorful twist, and toss in some cucumbers or cherry tomatoes for extra crunch!
