Hi friends!
Happy Wednesday and happy July! I hope you all holiday weekend with family or friends. I always love celebrating our country along with family traditions of grilling, swimming and fireworks.
I’m starting a new series of posts over the next few weeks about everything summer as we make our way through the season. To kick off my series, we are talking summer foods!
There’s nothing quite like enjoying a pasta salad alongside chicken or a burger or just by itself. If you’re looking for a fun and crowd-pleasing pasta salad this is for you.
Here’s a look at how to make Pizza Pasta Salad
Ingredients
(The amount of ingredients you will need to use varies since you can alter how much you want to make. I often make enough for a few servings but you can add more or less based on how many people will be eating)
Pasta (I chose medium shells)
Mini Pepperoni
Mozzarella Cheese (balls or shredded-whichever is your favorite)
Cherry tomatoes
Basil
Oregano
Italian Dressing
Directions
1) Boil pasta and add salt
2) Refrigerate until pasta is cool
1) Add Italian dressing, basil and oregano to pasta
2) Add in cheese, pepperoni, and cherry tomatoes3) Refrigerates well-add fresh Italian dressing before serving again
You can alter add how much of each ingredient you want to use based on how you are feeling too. This can be served as a side with a larger meal or it can be enjoyed on its own. Either way, it’s a perfect Italian mix to add to your summer salads in the summer.
