Spring Pasta Salad with Lemony Caper & Shallot Vinaigrette

Pasta Salad
2 Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Once boiled, add pasta and cook according to box instructions. Once pasta is cooked, set aside until cooled.
3 Once the pasta is cooled completely, add all other pasta salad ingredients to a large bowl with the pasta. Squeeze lemon over top and top with a few cracks of black pepper.
Vinaigrette 
5 In a small saucepan, add avocado oil over medium-high heat. Once oil is heated, add in capers and shallots. Season with salt & pepper. Once shallots start to sizzle, reduce heat to low-medium, continuously moving them around to ensure they don't burn. Cook for 8-10 minutes, until capers and shallots have lightly browned and become crispy. Remove from heat and seat aside.
6 In a small bowl, combine all vinaigrette ingredients. Add in the fried shallots, avocado oil and capers. Mix until combined. Taste and season as necessary.
