For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of fresh cilantro or basil before serving. To make this salad a heartier main course, toss in 1 cup of cooked and chilled grilled chicken, shrimp, or white beans. If you prefer a milder flavor, use half a jalapeño pepper or omit it entirely. For a spicier kick, leave some of the seeds in the jalapeño. Ensure the cucumber is seeded to prevent the salad from becoming watery. Make sure your pasta is cooked until Al Dente. Overcooking the pasta will ruin the texture of the dish.
