To prepare the dressing:
1 In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, chopped garlic, and salt & and pepper to taste by whisking all of the ingredients together.
2: Pour the dressing over the pasta salad, then mix it around with your hands until all of the components are evenly covered.
