My review
Avocado Pasta Salad
SuzFleeg
"The richness of the avocado makes this dish taste amazing. Feel free to add more or less olive oil for your preferred consistency. For best results refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving. Enjoy and feel guilt-free (unless you eat the whole bowl, which might just happen). It is easy to tweak this recipe to anything you like; add cooked chicken, or stir in some tuna, add some more veggies, or take some out that you don't like or have on hand."

a nice change from remade pasta salad dressing and a great way to use up a bag of avacados. Really enjoyed this even w/o dill

I love avocados so I really should have liked this recipe. Sadly i did not. I felt that it was really bland and had little to no flavor at all. I won't be making this again.

Not too bad. We added some feta cheese to add a little more saltiness to it. I also added more garlic powder, about another tsp.

I added 2 tsp. sugar because it seemed a little bitter. The salad was better the second day after marinating. It had a good, unique taste, and it was a fun variation on a pasta salad. It kept ...

I took note of another reviewer's comment being bland so I added basil rather than dill, a tbsp of olive oil, a tbsp of white wine vinegar and a generous (heaped) tsp of dijon mustard - much bet...
