Ingredients:
- 3 cups (750 ml) uncooked penne pasta
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) mayonnaise 2 tablespoons (30 ml) Dijon-style mustard
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) red wine vinegar

- 1/2 cup (125 ml) chopped green onions
- 1 cup (250 ml) grape tomatoes

Cook the pasta in boiling water for 11 minutes or until cooked but still firm, stirring occasionally. Do not overcook.
Put the cooked pasta into a sieve and rinse under cold water. Drain well. Place in a large bowl. Set aside to cool.
Whisk the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, wine vinegar, olive oil, garlic, pepper, salt, and feta cheese together in a bowl or large measuring cup.
Just before serving, pour the mayonnaise mixture over the cooled cooked pasta. Stir gently to coat the pasta with the dressing.
