Great dish for the Hollywood Bowl this summer. I’m always looking for something easy and light. Thanks

SUPER easy and everyone seems to love it (unless they don’t like tomatoes or something)

I agree with you .. all it needs is Oil, herbs and seasoning .. delicious . Yes I don’t put cheese or meats in mine either prefer to do your way

Something so great about keeping it *so* simple!

[...] so our usual lunchtime pasta course often finds its place in the evenings (unless I’ve made a lovely summer pasta salad). But a requirement is still that it must be fast and easy; it cools down in the evenings, but not [...]

Okay, we’re back home in the states and sorting through the 1500 pictures we took in Italy. The pasta salad was fantastic, we both really enjoyed it. Badolato is amazing and we had the best tour guide I’m trying to figure out the laws of physics that cause the inclines in the streets of Badolato to actually be steeper when going up than on the way down the hills. I’ve got researchers looking into it right now. Thanks again for everything!

Sara, I’m happy to shout! My OH likes this one really simple (in fact, it was just requested again yesterday), but I absolutely agree with the flavors being best the next day. In fact, if possible, I suggest making it the night before if you’re having it for lunch the following day. Yum!

Betty C, I saw the similarities as well; glad you stopped by

Heidi, woohoo, a success story! My P turned up his nose the first time I suggested adding cold pasta to his cucumbers and tomatoes, but once I did, we’ve never looked back. He’ll be eating what’s left of yesterday’s pasta salad shortly Thanks for coming back to let me know how it turned out!

Thanks for stopping by my blog. It sounds like we have quite a bit in common — being an expat, cooking, reading, writing. I just wish age was one of those common points!

Hi! thanks for the shout out! :OD I do have to say though, I love when the meats/cheeses are added ahead of time. I always think the salad is better the next day, after the flavors have melded, and soaked up all the flavor. Mozzarella can get a little watery, but it has never stopped me from eating it. haha
