Pasta Salad Vinaigrette (Mccormick Style)

Submitted by catsoplenty

"My favorite pasta salad dressing was always the packet of PSV from McCormick. I haven't been able to find it in a couple of years and finally went to the McCormick site only to find out that it's not available any longer. But they did post a recipe!!! I haven't tried it yet but wanted to post it for anyone else who might be looking for the same. Note: prep time does not include the refrigeration time that is required. I like to use tri-colored pasta and sometimes I throw in some cubes of cheddar cheese, too."

This is a very nice vinaigrette and pasta salad. I used quinoa rotini pasta, red and green bell peppers, carrots, onion, and some chopped brocolli slaw. Very easy to make and tastes great. Thanks for posting. Made for Spring PAC 2010!

Made for Spring PAC 2010 today (April 12th) and this is an easy and wonderful salad. I used red/green peppers, some chopped leftover snow peas, chopped red onion, and some artichokes and ripe olives. Definately will be a keeper in my Favorites 2010. Thank you.
