Pasta Salad
Posted in Great Recipes on 01. Feb, 2010
This pasta salad recipe is delicious, and one of the best pasta salads I’ve tasted yet. My friends and family ask me to make this when we have pot lucks, and it’s so simple and delicious that I never turn them down. This is great for a light dish at home, or a side to bring to an event.
Pasta Salad Dressing:
2 ½ cup Italian dressing
1 cup parmesan cheese
1 Tbsp garlic powder
2 Tbsp onion powder
½ Tbsp black pepper
- Combine above ingredients and whisk together until mixed well.
- Set aside
Pasta Salad:
2 lbs tri-colored spiral pasta (or pasta of your choice)
Broccoli*
Carrots*
Celery*
Green Peppers*
Cubed Sharp White Cheddar Cheese* (I usually use Cracker Barrel brand)
*You can use the amount that suits your taste. I don’t have measured amounts, but I just adjust the amounts based on preference as well as how much pasta I’m making. The pasta dressing is proportionate to 2lbs of pasta, so if you are using less make sure and adjust the proportions of the ingredients to the dressing.
Enjoy!
