    This was so good!! And when it says "huge bowl" it means it! I was going to a big family reunion type bar-b-q so I made the whole recipe, thinking that it'd fill up my biggest bowl......and it filled both my largest and my second largest bowls! But WOW good! Good thing I have another family thing to go to in a few days, I can get the second bowl eaten, it's just me and my husband here, so there's no way we'd eat that much on our own, awesome recipe!

    Italian Pasta Salad, Great for summer parties This makes a huge big bowl so cut the recipe in half to serve fewer Very easy to prepare ahead and pull out at the last minute The pasta will absorb the dressing, so prepare all the ingredients and store them in separate small bags until 30 minutes before serving time Then, just pull it out, toss it all together and serve This is the signature dish from a gourmet deli and catering company where I worked briefly during college :), This was so good!! And when it says huge bowl it means it! I was going to a big family reunion type bar-b-q so I made the whole recipe, thinking that it’d fill up my biggest bowl and it filled both my largest and my second largest bowls! But WOW good! Good thing I have another family thing to go to in a few days, I can get the second bowl eaten, it’s just me and my husband here, so there’s no way we’d eat that much on our own, awesome recipe!, Great pasta salad! I did cut the recipe in half for my family and they loved it Used matchstick carrots, cut back on the olives and made the dressing the night before So easy to make and the flavors together are wonderful Made and reviewed for PAC 2007 thank you Messy44
