The things I would keep for sure are the italian dressing mix (it coats everything) and a hard cheese--asiago, parmesan, whatever, b/c it holds up nicely in this salad. We ate it straight up and with salad greens. People say they used bottled basalmic to keep it simple, which would be fine. I might add beans next time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-pasta-salads#post-1463245 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 11:01:52 +0000 nana87 1463245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my favorite to make is super simple, and a big hit at potlucks: bow-ties (or similar) with cherry tomatoes, basil, pine nuts, cheese (parm, goat, feta, or mozzarella) with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-pasta-salads#post-1463244 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 11:01:35 +0000 lovehoneybee 1463244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There's a BLT Macaroni salad from Skinny Taste that I really like: <a href="http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/06/blt-macaroni-salad.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/06/blt-macaroni-salad.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-pasta-salads#post-1463224 Mon, 03 Mar 2014 10:56:37 +0000 swurlygurl 1463224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Continually trying to improve DH's work-lunch. I think a good option might be a cold or warm pasta salad (or similar: quinoa, rice?) with a sandwich. He doesn't think sandwiches are filling enough, so a side of a pasta salad will hopefully make him happier.</p> <p>Sooo, what are your favorites? I don't need measurements, I generally just throw a bunch of ingredients together until it looks right... haha! </p>
