Sauce
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablspoons worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 clove garlic grated
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes

Ingredients
- 1/2 pound pasta
- 6 jalapenos seeds removed, diced
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh oregano
- 4 ounces feta crumbled
- 4 ounces capicola chopped and ripped apart
- 1 cup diced cucumbers
- 1/2 cup diced radish
Instructions
- Mix the sauce ingredients in a bowl.
- Cook the pasta in a pot of heavily salted water until just barely cooked and still firm. Strain.
- Add the pasta right to the mayo sauce and stir to combine. Cover and store in the fridge until fully cooled.
- Add in the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. I like to lightly salt the cucumbers and radish as I add them.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. I added a splash of worcestershire, more oil and mayo, and a little chili flake. It depends how you like it!
