Very colorful and tasy! I would recommend tossing the pasta with the olive oil vinegar and pepper before adding the other ingredients. Will definitely make again. Read More

I made it just as written except that I used green pepper instead of red and I used two tablespoons olive oil and 4 tablespoons vinegar. It was good but nothing special. It still tasted like it needed more vinegar. Read More

This is a large easy different pasta salad that would be great for a pot-luck. I used kalamata (greek) olives instead of regular black. I also used Kraft's bag of "mediterranean" cheese crumbles (provolone feta and parmesan). I thought it needed more vinegar and a pinch of salt. I think next time I would use 2/3 to 3/4 of the pasta in order to concentrate the other flavors a bit more. Read More

Very good and easy but I agree maybe less pasta to concentrate the flavors. And I thought it needed some salt which I added to taste. Read More

Well I guess that's what I get for omitting the peppers a bland salad. Trust me the basic flavor was ok without the pepper just don't omit it like I did (just for health reasons). Was also disappointed in the wetness of the salad..really had no consistancy and a little on the dry side..but I enjoyed all the ingredients so it was still edible. Read More
