Rather than simply cook it in water, added some garlic, onion and parsley to the pan to infuse extra flavour. Studded with tiny bits of fresh mozzarella, chopped olives, onions and grape tomatoes, this recipe, the dressing is also a very versatile you can toss with any mixed greens for a homemade option.
