Lemon Spaghetti Salad

This is a simple but versatile recipe for a tasty side dish. We serve this one hot or as pictured here, as a cold pasta salad. It's a great pot luck or picnic dish as well.

1 pound package of dry spaghetti
½ cup extra virgin olive oil
¾ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
Juice of 3 lemons
Zest of one lemon, finely grated and minced
¼ cup chopped fresh mint (fresh tarragon or basil make good substitutes)
Salt and pepper to season
½ cup chopped green onions

Boil the spaghetti to al dente in salted water. Drain the spaghetti. Whisk together the remaining ingredients to make the dressing, and then toss together with the cooked spaghetti and serve hot or cold.
