As we posted last week, all month long we are shining a light on Salads! Last week we had a "Lettuce" Salad, this week we are focusing on Pasta Salads. Now pasta salads are just your regular plain old Macaroni. There are many different types of pasta salads. You can often take your favourite flavours from a traditional salad and add them to your favourite pasta. One of my favourite salads is a Greek Pasta Salad, it has any pasta you want (I use what we call Scooby-Doos), and you add tomatoes, Black Olives, some Red Onion, and you crumble some feta cheese into it. It is delicious and you can use a prebought salad dressing or make your own whatever you like!
Today's challenge is to make a Pasta salad. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, it can be any type of Pasta, Orzo (we posted our free recipe for Orzo Pasta salad yesterday for Freebie Friday if you need some inspiration), Bow ties, Couscous, even a stepped-up version of a traditional Macaroni Salad would due. But try to think outside of the box!
For even more inspiration here is our Crabby Mac Salad (recipe follows).
