This is an easy recipe to just “throw together” when you need a quick side dish to complement a spring or summer meal. You can change it according to your tastes!
Italian Pasta Salad
whole grain pasta (penne, rigatoni, bowties, etc.)
zesty Italian dressing
grape/cherry tomatoes, halved
red onion, sliced
Parmesan cheese
basil and oregano (I used dried, but fresh would be great!)
optional: cucumbers, black olives, etc.
Cook pasta and allow to cool. Add additional ingredients and toss. Chill. Add more dressing just before serving so it’s not too dry.
Enjoy!

I love your decorations. We just moved into our first house after marrying and I am so bad with decorating. 🙂
And I WILL be making that pasta salad soon!
