A pasta salad is one of the recipes you can make using minimal ingredients but have the same great dish taste So to make a pasta salad you’ll need in the first place Pasta. It is better to use shaped colored ones. I like to buy a bag of mixed colored pasta as it adds a nice colorful look to the dish.
Secondly, you need vegetables such as celery, any kind of onions, olives, carrots, broccoli, tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers (green, red, yellow)… So anything can go here! Just pick whatever your taste desire!
You can also use Parmesan cheese or chicken or any kind of seafood. Never forget to season with salt and pepper.
When it comes to the dressing it is recommended you’d use a creamy one. If you are not into creamy salad dressing you can use the oil/vinegar one.
