Farmers Market Pasta Salad
This is a simple pasta salad you can whip up in a snap. It uses fresh seasonal produce that you can pick up at your local farmers market. Swap out the produce as the seasons change for variety!
Ingredients
- 4 cups cooked pasta
- ¾ to 1 cup of salad dressing I used Roasted Red Pepper with Parmesan
- ⅓ cup yellow pepper chopped
- ¼ cup red pepper chopped
- ¼ cup shallot chopped
- ½ cup celery diced
- ½ cup carrot shredded or diced
- ¾ cup chopped tomatoes
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- Optional:
- Parmesan Cheese
Instructions
- Cook your pasta ahead of time.
- In a large bowl combine all of your ingredients. Mix well.
- Add more salad dressing if you find it dry.
- Mix again.
- Pop in the fridge for about 4 to 8 hours.
- Sprinkle some Parmesan over top if desired.
- Serve with big old I love my Farmers Market smile!
Notes
I always eat this while it's hot as I add the noodles. I can't help myself. I'm a hot pasta kind of gal. I have to do two batches since I can't eat raw tomatoes. So this is a dish you can either use them or not.
