Fresh Pea and Roasted Red Pepper Pasta Salad

adapted from smitten kitchen

I am a little late in posted this recipe. It is no longer summer and it is no longer pea season. Peas became my new favorite vegetable this summer. I don't think I had ever had fresh shell peas. The ones from our CSA were amazing. The recipe calls for blanching the peas, I did, but I think it would have been fine just using them raw. If you do blanch them you can save the blanching water to boil the pasta.

If blanching - boil snow peas for two minute then add to ice bath, boil peas for seven and add the ice bath. Boil pasta. Slice snow peas into slivers. Toss peas, pasta and as much dressing as you want. Sprinkle with feta cheese.
