Favorita Pasta - Salad Part 2

For some reason, coming up with a favorite pasta was hard for me and its been a busy few weeks around here....

I make this pasta salad often and like any good recipe, it can be altered to suit your own tastes. Sometimes I add grilled chicken for some protein. Sorry, as usual I don't have specific measurements!

1 box bow tie pasta
a couple of tomatoes
1 can of garbanzo beans
feta
fresh spinach
kalamata olives (optional)
store bought greek salad dressing OR your own oil and vinegar and herb combo

Make pasta according to directions on box. Run cold water over the pasta after cooking and draining it. Chop tomatoes and feta into bite sized pieces and add them to the pasta along with the drained garbanzo beans and the kalamata olives. Mix with dressing. Tear fresh spinach and add it just before serving.
