Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 pound medium shells pasta, slightly undercooked
½ to 1 pound kalamata olives, rinsed, pitted, and sliced in half
8 ozs julienne cut sundried tomatoes in olive oil
6 ozs crumbled feta cheese
11 ozs pesto (I used Buitoni)
4 ozs pine nuts
Extra virgin olive oil, as needed
Directions:
Directions:
Cook the entire box of pasta according to box instructions, but leave it slightly under-cooked.
While the pasta cooks, rinse the kalamata olives, then slice them in half lengthwise.
If you can't find julienne cut sundried tomatoes, just buy regular ones and cut them up yourself. I cut them to be about the same size as the olive halves.
Combine drained pasta, kalamata olives, sundried tomatoes (with olive oil they came in) and feta cheese in a large bowl/container (preferably something with a lid). Once mixed, add pesto in small amounts. If your pesto sauce is dry, drizzle in additional olive oil to keep pasta salad from drying out. Top with pine nuts. Chill for 2 hours or until cold. Serve and enjoy!
