Excellent will make over and over!! Made the sulsa in the a.m. and left on counter all day (it's Feb. & cold here the salsa marinated and was soooo goooodddd. Got home at 6 and threw in pasta and 5 mintues later we were ready to eat. Pasta was warm so wasn't really a "cold" summer dish. Bought olives at olive bar already in evoo & red peppers so just added more evoo to the "juice" that was left in the olive tub to make the1/4 cup and didn't add additional red peppers. I did all the recipes in this show so also had crustini w/mock mascarpone and red peppers along with the pasta. I do not particularly like tomato based sauces so this was right up my alley. LOVED LOVED LOVED it. Will make this over and over. THANK YOU FOR THIS EXCELLENT RECIPE. Very easy and NOT time consuming at all. Waiting for you when you get home.

Great recipe! We have had it numerous times this summer. The only thing I did do (per family request was to use a lighter olive oil as opposed to EVOO. The great part is that not only does it taste great but with only having to cook the angel hair pasta 3-4 minutes your kitchen stays cool on these hot summer nights.

Flavorful and easy! Made this exactly as written except substituted lemon zest for orange zest. I loved the freshness of the mint. I made the sauce in the morning and put it in the fridge, at dinner time I let it come to room temp and added the pasta. Delicious, simple, and so easy-perfect for the summer.

Wonderful dish! Didn't have any mint, so I used old standby...basil. Will try the mint next time. Added additional olives. Thanks Melissa.

Loved this! I omitted the capers (really dislike them and added more green manzanilla olives along with the kalamata olives. I used Barilla Plus angel hair for extra protein. Such a light delicious pasta that is even good cold for lunch the next day! Thanks Melissa your meals are great --- I'm vegetarian so I always get excited when there is an entirely meatless meal!

Great recipe Melissa! Its been so hot here so to have to only boil noodles was perfect. I made the sauce in the morning so it literally took a few minutes to put together which was awesome. Keep them coming, Melissa, I love your show and your ideas!

Thanks Melissa. This was easy and delicious. The orange zest was a nice surprise flavor. This recipe is very versatile and I will use it often. I used diced canned tomatoes as I was without fresh and basil instead of mint. I can't wait until the fresh tomatoes come into season as I will make this dish often.
