This is a delicious, summery pasta salad that's incredibly easy to make! I often get requests for it at family gatherings. I usually use fat-free Italian dressing and light mayonnaise and it still tastes fantastic. Feel free to throw in some peppers and other veggies too!
Ingredients:
1/2 lb
uncooked
pasta , of your choice
1 stalk
celery , diced
1 medium
tomato , chopped
1/2-3/4 cup
Italian salad dressing
(to taste)
1/2 cup
mayonnaise
salt and pepper
Directions:
1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
2
Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente.
3
Drain and pour pasta into a large dish.
4
Stir in the celery and tomatoes.
5
In a separate bowl, whisk together the salad dressing and mayonnaise, then pour this mixture over the salad and toss again, to coat.
6
Cover and chill until ready to serve.
7
Enjoy!

This was easy to make and it was super to eat! I used homemade Italian dressing and I halved the recipe. Great! Thanks Kree!

I made this for a potluck luncheon at work and there wasn't a bit left to take home. Need I say more? One person asked for the recipe and another commented on the unusual pasta shape I used (radiattore), which contributed to its appeal.
