Ingredients
-
16 oz Pasta (fettuccine, fusilli, or bowtie work great)
-
10–12 oz Fresh Parmesan, cut into 1/4 to 1/2 inch cubes
-
1 container Cherry tomatoes, halved
-
15–20 Medium-to-large basil leaves, coarsely chopped
-
4 Scallions, white and green parts, finely chopped
-
1/2 cup Cannaoil (cannabis oil)
-
4 tsp Balsamic vinegar (try our own balsamic recipe here)
-
Salt & Freshly ground pepper, to taste
Step-by-Step Directions
-
Cook Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook your chosen pasta until al dente. Drain well and rinse immediately with cold water to stop the cooking process. Allow the pasta to dry completely.
-
Combine: Transfer the dried pasta to a large mixing bowl. Add the cubed Parmesan, halved cherry tomatoes, chopped basil, and scallions.
-
Dress: Pour in the cannaoil and balsamic vinegar. Season generously with salt and pepper.
-
Toss & Serve: Toss all ingredients until the pasta is evenly coated with the dressing. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until you are ready to impress your guests with this refreshing edibles recipe.
Pro-Tips for Success
-
Dryness Matters: The secret to a perfect pasta salad is ensuring your pasta is completely dry after rinsing. This ensures the cannaoil and balsamic dressing cling to the noodles rather than pooling at the bottom of the bowl.
-
Cheese Quality: Using hand-cut chunks of high-quality Parmesan adds a beautiful textural contrast to the soft tomatoes and tender pasta, a hallmark of Stoner Strategies culinary excellence.
-
Flavor Development: If you have time, let the salad chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving. This allows the basil and vinegar to meld with the fats in the cannaoil, deepening the flavor profile of your cannabis edibles.
