I thought this was a very good simple pasta salad recipe. Just to spice it up a bit I added chopped parsley and fresh squeezed lemon juice. Otherwise you can pretty much add WHATEVER you want and it will still taste good! Read More

This recipe sounded delicious but I think the proportions might be off. I added more dijon mustard for more tanginess but the end result was a lot blander than I expected. I think this recipe might need some fine tuning but has some potential to be delicious. One thing I thought sounded good was to maybe add something sweet like honey to the dijon mustard. Read More

Very tasty! I doubled the amount of dijon & pasta and used 3 large plum tomatoes. There might be something still missing from this recipe but it won't stop me from making this again. Read More

Made this last night and the hubby devoured it. I thought it could use a little more kick so next time I may up the dijon a little and maybe the Chile pepper. But we will be making this again. Thanks for sharing! Read More

We really liked this recipe for two reasons. First my Husband can make it and it is a fast recipe. I changed the yogurt to no fat Lemon yogurt. 1 6oz. cotainer and 1/2 tea. more dijon. Yummy. We make 4 servings. I have what is left(if lucky) for lunch the next day. Read More

LOVE THIS! Added chopped red bell pepper - it was a great addition to add some crispness. Used serrano peppers - a bit spicier than your average pepper. I also added a tbsp of sweet honey mustard because it looked good - and it was!!!! Doubled the recipe and husband devoured in a day. Read More

This pasta salad is ok - it is missing something but I have not figured out what. I like all the ingredients that are in it but it needs something else. Hoping that once it sits overnight the flavors will meld a little better. Read More
