MY FAVORITE PASTA SALAD
This is my favorite Pasta Salad to make for 2 reasons. It is fat free and I always have these ingredients on hand. A great way to use up Tomatoes and Cucumbers we have this often in the Summer months. Try it I think you will like it.

APRIL'S FAVORITE PASTA SALAD
This is my favorite pasta salad. I adapted a dressing recipe (the one that's on the back side of a bottle of Heinz Gourmet Salad Vinegar) to suit our tastes and it has become our favorite dressing for pasta salad. I've been making it this way for about 7 years, and we all think it's wonderful. This is way better than using a bottle of Italian dressing or something like that, in my opinion. The veggies listed here are just the ones we like to have in pasta salad, but you could certainly change that up some if you wanted (like you could add cauliflower if you like that, or even a can of cannellini beans would go nicely, sometimes I add that). I hope you try it (you'll loooove it, LOL!!) Today I made this to go with Strombolis for lunch. Very delicious!

Steps:
- Cook and drain the pasta, but do not rinse. Allow to cool. (Any clumping of the pasta will be fixed when it is tossed with the dressing.)
- Meanwhile, place vegetables and cheese in a large bowl.
- Combine vinegar, oil, sugar, and seasonings in container with lid; shake well and pour over vegetables and gently toss.
- Add cooled pasta to vegetable mixture and toss well. Chill until ready to serve.
- *Note: You could just substitute regular white vinegar in place of the gourmet salad vinegar if you want. I do that when I'm out of the salad vinegar and it works fine.

Steps:
- Cook the pasta, adding the peas for final 2 mins cooking time. Drain, rinse with cold water to cool, then drain again. Tip into a bowl with the chopped herbs, lemon zest and juice, olive oil and plenty of seasoning and mix well. Cover and chill, spooning out portions as and when. If you're making this for one person, by days 3 and 4 you'll need to stir in a little olive oil or something creamy to loosen the pasta.

MY FAVORITE PASTA SALAD
This is the perfect summer salad, sweet and crisp. I sometimes make extra of the dressing because I like it with more than it asks for, but that is just me personally. Enjoy!
