Italian Pasta Salad

I love making this salad for gatherings and hot summer days 😊

This is a cold salad we have had at family gatherings for a while now. People seem to love it and it is super simple.

Simple and quick pasta salad recipe packed with fresh veggies for the whole family. Inspired by purchases made at Aldi.

It’s still hot where I live and I wanted something cold and hearty.

A salad brought to America by Italian immigrants. It has now become a staple in American cuisine and is often enjoyed at parties.The origin of this recipeI tasted it at a potluck party in America, and it was incredibly delicious. I noticed it was sold by weight at supermarkets everywhere. I thought I could make it myself, so I tried to replicate it.

This is soooo good. Make sure the pasta is just a little firm. The italian dressing will soften it up.

Fresh, easy, & delicious 😊

Growing up my mom would make this for me at least once a month, but she always made it with spaghetti noodles. Given that I suck at cutting noodles, I adapted. Haha. Hope you enjoy a slice of my childhood. :)

Healthy and delicious 🤤 You will never need another pasta salad recipe!!!

I have this on hand every day when my niece is here visiting ....it's practically all she eats :-P

Great for cookouts, parties, baby showers, or just a side to go with your dinner! you can use Italian dressing to substitute my mayo dressing.

This is an easy cold pasta dish that just requires mixing. It's very light, so you can enjoy it even in the summer heat. It's a classic summer lunch in Italy.The origin of this recipeI've been making this recipe often since my time in Italy.In the summer, Italians always make this pasta to get through the hot Italian summer. It's like the Italian version of cold Chinese noodles.

its a great side dish

This salad is made by tossing peeled cherry tomatoes, edamame, and vegetable-infused short pasta with Italian dressing and Parmesan cheese. I wanted to create a cute and visually appealing salad, so I combined these ingredients. It's adorable and very delicious.

I have been making this pasta salad for years and keep adding my favorite things! It never goes without someone asking me for a recipe and always take home a empty pan.

I like to make this as a side dish or appetizer for holiday & celebratory parties. It also for sure works with a good barbecue menu as well! 😏👌🤤 A great non-dairy alternative option to the traditional creamy macaroni salad that you usually see at those kinds of functions.😎 My Grandmother & Stepfather made this often when I was growing up. Traditionally this dish is made with cheeses & meats. Our family often uses cubes or crumbles of cheddar or colby-jack cheese (as well as parmesan, monterey jack, mozzarella, or any cheese you like or have around!👏) & pieces of ham, salami, or pepperoni.🤷🏻‍♀️ But this can quickly be made vegan by leaving those out! 😉👍👍 A very simple recipe that is easy, & adaptable! Enjoy! 👏😎

I have seen a lot of different Italian pasta salads, so I decided to try and do one but I couldn't find the one that I wanted to try, so I ended up just buying stuff that I wanted in it. Nobody in my household would try it besides myself and my youngest daughter. She loved this so much that she kept asking for more. The only thing that she picked out of it was the tomatoes. I will definitely do this again, but I think that I might make a few changes just to make it different. The ham for instance, didn't really go with because I had gotten honey ham. I think regular ham would be better.
