One of my favorite things to eat in the summer is pasta salad! While this recipe is probably nothing earth shattering, I thought I would share with you how we make our pasta salad because everyone seems to make it a little bit differently!
Before summer is over you have to try it!
We have probably made this recipe at least five or more times this summer and we always want more!
Shopping List:
1 16 oz box of rotini pasta (I prefer the vegetable kind)
1 16 oz Italian dressing (I always buy Kroger brand and it works great)
1 cucumber
1 large tomato
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (this is what makes it so good!)
1/2 tablespoon Italian seasoning
Directions:
Cook pasta according to box.
After pasta is drained, mix in Italian dressing
Chop up veggies and add to pasta. Add remaining ingredients and chill.
Easy peasy!
Note: This is what we put in our pasta salad, however we have added other items when we happen to have them. Other great ideas are a green pepper, julienne carrots, mini pepperonis, pulled rotisserie chicken, cheese cubes, olives, whatever you can think of really!
Hope you enjoy! Also I love trying other pasta salad recipes so if you have a good one please share in the comments below!
