Pasta with yogurt, smooth and light

The heat has arrived and we are in the mood for lighter and fresher recipes. Here is a simple cold recipe for pasta with yogurt. You can present it as a first course or as a garnish for grilled meat or fish.

It is important that you prepare the pasta in advance and that you stop cooking by putting it under cold water. Then we will only have to prepare the yogurt sauce and mix everything when we go to bring it to the table.

Yogurts can be Greek or normal. Of course, make sure they are natural and not sugary.

I leave you here the link of our fresh homemade pasta, in case you dare to prepare it.
