Zesty Italian Pasta Salad

You smell like a duck

Good just the way the recipe is

Very tasty. Will use only 1/4 onion next time

really good, but would add more dressing next time :) the taste also improved the next day!

Yummy

It was delicious and my family thoroughly enjoyed it

Tasty! Took me ages to make though, not sure why - but it's worth the effort 😆

Tasty can add more Parmesan but yum

Add feta and needs lots more sauce

It's a good starter, I had to double the dressing because it wasnt enough, next time I would add salamai, ham and feta cheese

Loved the sauce (though I doubled the amount cause there wasn’t enough for the whole salad)

I'll probably add banana peppers and salami pieces next time but it's delicious as is. I used parmesan and feta cheese

good one 👍

Double dressing recipe

I did a different dressing using extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar, with oregano, salt and pepper. I also used white onion because I had some already and like it raw. Also added grated cheddar instead of parmesan to keep it vegetarian.

Perfect summer salad

It was ok. May not make it again. Very fresh and healthy but the rocket overpowered everything in the salad so I would use mixed 4 leaf salad or spinach. There are so many better pasta recipes out there. We added avocado and olive oil and got through it but wasn't necessarily the best meal I've made. The grated carrot was a little weird. Not bad tasting - just felt a bit random. the dressing was good but wanted a little more, not just quantity but flavour too, but I'll be using that top of shaking dressing in a jar to (somewhat) emulsify it.

Yum!!

Increase dressing by 1/3 or double it

Absalotely blissful

Too much onion

I adjust the dressing slightly same cals though and added a few gherkins MAGIC I LOVVVVE THIS SALAD.

Didn’t like the taste. The red pepper was just too much.

I had to tweak it to my taste buds

Nice

Kids not sure

I personally didn't like it but it's definitely something u should try

Its good but it is not the best pasta salad I have ever had

Use a little extra parmesan and chickpea pasta for extra protein!

Omitted black olives. Doubled the dressing. Very nice pasta salad. Even my somewhat picky teenager liked it.

Removed the olives and used garlic paste instead of raw garlic but otherwise followed recipe and was really tasty

Used pickled beetroot instead of red onion, left out olives and parmesan and used jarred pepper instead if fresh - absolutely delicious! Definitely make again!

Wonderful summer pasta salad. Loved the dressing too. I used chickpea pasta and it worked very well!

Very yummy & balanced! I made the recipe exactly except I accidentally added a bit more pasta because I didn't realize my package was 10oz and not 8oz 😅

Easy to make and delicious 😋

Very easy. I'd add less onion next time. Very tasty.

My toddler ate two bowls of this salad. The only thing I did differently is add an extra 1 tsp of maple syrup as the taste was a tad too vinegar tasting before.

Needs the olive or a strong cheese.

Sends you straight to the toilet that's for sure but I love these types of pasta salads

nice and very quick!

This was very tasty. I left out the olive 🫒 and tomatoes 🍅 very healthy 😋 I will definitely make it again

I skipped arugula and I cut fresh spinach 💚🫶🏻

super tasty, used sweet onion sauce instead of italian dressing !!

I added garbanzo beans and fresh parsley. I also used protein pasta.

White wine vinegar. Tasty!

Absolutely amazing!

Very strong taste of vinegar.

Very tasty! The dressing was a pleasant surprise! The red onion gives a great kick! Was so good we forgot to take a photo. Will make again and again 😍

I loved this dish and the dressing, I added some crumbled fetta to it that had to be used up, and it worked out really well. My kids who do not usually like salad dressings really enjoyed this.

I did make this different. I cooked the pasta and then put the onions, pepper, carrot, and tomatoes into a pan until cooked. Then, I added some spinach. I added that to the pasta, then the salad dressing and cheese. It was delicious

Delicious classic pasta salad.

The dressing 👍

It was good would probably use less red onion

Was okey, but will try another one next time

Replaced parmesan with Feta cheese, added some rocket, extra peppers

Was ok. Probably try a different recipe next time

It turns out a little sweet but I had in perhaps a bit too much carrot and no mustard

Use less oil and vinegar for a thicker dressing, delicious

I will double the dressing next time.

Added a bit of piri piri and doubled the parmesan, plus did not add maple syrup.

Easy to make. Can substitute store bought pesto for the dressing too

4yo did not want any. 2yo loved the olives and pasta only.

Really delicious. You could easily change the taste by changing up the dressing. ..... I also measured the cheese with my heart rather than what the recipe said 😂

Used baby spinach in place of arugula, Kalamata olives instead of black, and seasoned rice vinegar instead of red wine vinegar. Used bow ties for the pasta. Came out great!

Easy pasta salad. Next time will add more oil and dressing and a little bit more pepper. It was even better after letting it chill

gas

We used chickpea penne and added chicken to it and it came out amazing!

Turned out great! Super easy and has a real punch of flavor. I will definitely be making this dish again. I did make some slight adjustments: -Roasted the sliced Cherry tomatoes. I brushed them with oil and sprinkled with Italian Spices and a dash of sea salt and pepper. -Sautéed the onions *next time I think I would like to try adding cubed avocado

I loved this recipe, not sharing a picture because mine is kind of deconstructed. I made a huge amount for my husband and I to have meal preps. I do find I would need to end up making more dressing. Pair this with some Dano's seasoned chicken tenderloins and it's amazing!

My pasta was testing out it’s teleportation machine when a rouge salad snuck in as the doors shut. The result? This abomination! It was quite tasty.

This was one of the best pasta salads we’ve had in a while! We skipped the arugula because we didn’t have any, but added chicken and fresh oregano. The dressing went really well with everything else.

Added radishes and as always more parm.

This is a grown up version of pasta salad. Add the arugula when plating so it doesn’t get soggy in leftovers. The dressing is meant to be room temperature (it will congeal in the fridge). Using a store bought dressing will avoid that problem if you prefer it cold. Half a red onion is still too much for this recipe. A lot of additional vegetable options: swap bell pepper with roasted red peppers, add cucumber, radishes, broccoli, etc.

Also added feta and kalamata olives.

Really easy and super delicious

I had slight variations to the original recipe. For instance, I used cucumber curls to substitute the arugula. I accidentally used an extra scoop of Dijon mustard. The Italian seasoning that I used was made from scratch, which made a difference to the taste. I gave my family the option of more cheese by using queso fresco crumbles, if they wanted.

This was delicious 😋 I left out a few things like the tomatoes 🍅it's gives me heartburn add some jack 🧀 cheese loved it

It was to dry for me.

Family absolutely loved this, will definitely be on the weekly menu.

My family loved it. The dressing went perfectly with the pasta & salad ingredients. I will definitely be making it again.

Easy recipe to make, incredibly healthy too. Yum!

Doubled the dressing and added broccoli and cauliflower

I didn't have arugula so I used fresh chopped spinach. The dressing is great and could be doubled. I don't like Italian seasoning so I used oregano. 9/10

Delicious quick meal, recommend

Sehr lecker..hab halt nur genommen was ich da habe

Was really good, served with chicken and was great.

Love this recipe! I did add about a teaspoon and a half more of Dijon and a lot more salt and pepper.

I made the onions too big! It was still good but you should follow instructions and cut them very small lol

The urugula really kicks up the recipe. It's probably my favorite pasta salad I've ever had. REMINDER: Went a little nuts on the salt last time. Instead, make a bit more dressing. Also added basil to the recipe.

Make sure to soak the red onion in cold water for ten minutes before adding to minimize the bite. Even so, go light on the red onion Make an extra portion of the dressing. Dice the carrots Add cheddar?

Pretty good. Didn’t really use the recipe much and added spinach and mushrooms to it… pretty good except I added too much red wine vinegar 🙈

A great side dish with chicken, or on it's own for a vibrant lunch. Very quick to make

We added sweet Italian sausage to it but it was fun and easy.

The red onion was quite overpowering! Although to be fair its not something I'm usually a fan of anyways. And the arugula just did not integrate well. I don't know, in my opinion it turned out bland with an after taste of sharp. Just wasn't a hit for me.

My 13 year old son loved it, so that’s saying something!

Lovely lite dish while being very satisfying xxxxx

-Make more of the dressing -less onions -use dijon mustard, I used ground mustard and maybe it would’ve been better with dijon

I added more arugula than called for, and think I'll cut back on the red onion a little next time, but very tasty salad!

I added some white North American beans for some protein and used chickpea/lentil noodles. I added a few extra veggies than what it called for as well. I topped it with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and chopped basil out of my garden after the picture was taken. Lol by the time I got the idea to put cheese and basil on top I was absolutely starving! It was light and fresh, but very filling. 👌🏼

This was so fresh! Lovely for a summers day ☀️☺️ I used Gluten Free Pasta and added some fresh Basil😊

I played around with the ingredients several times and it always turns out great!

Sub lentil pasta and it's gluten free 😍

Was fantastic but I used Ken's Zesty Italian Dressing as I didn't feel like making my own. I also cubed up cheddar cheese and added artichokes to my salad it was a big hit at my house. Thank you for a great summer recipe.

Made it for me and my parents. My Mom and I loved it, my Dad didn't but we expected that. I left out the olives and cheese and used basil instead of arugula as well as only 1/4 an onion and threw a little parsley into the mix. It was delicious! Would definetly recommend on hot days and you can even bring the leftovers to work to eat at lunch.

This is so yummy and summer fresh. It took me about 20 minutes to cook the pasta, chop up the very and make the dressing. I've made the batch and I've now got ready made cook-free meals for the week.

Super tasty and easy to make! I added salami too and it was delicious ♥️

I added feta instead of parmesan and some fresh basil leaves 🤌

I added a healthy dose of salad supreme and it was awesome

I left out the onions and it was still delicious.
