BLT Macaroni Salad by Robyn Savoie

This is a summer staple in my house because it's nice to serve on hot and humid days. Make sure to cook the pasta al dente because it will absorb half the dressing as it rests in the refrigerator.

Chicken, Tomatoes & Rotini Salad by Salad Foodie

Hearty pasta salad to help use up leftover roast chicken or turkey. I've a bumper crop of grape tomatoes which work well in this too. I try to go light on the seasonings, so follks can adjust as desired when served.

This is a family favorite all summer long. With all the different pasta's out there, feel free to it change up.

Ham, Peas & Pasta Salad by Salad Foodie

A nice choice for a summer cookout or picnic, this pasta salad can be made up to a day ahead for convenience. My pasta choice for this is ditalini, a small pasta often used in soups (this can be hard to locate but Barilla sells a one pound box.) Or substitute your own small pasta FAV such as elbows or shells.

Luncheon Pasta Salad by Salad Foodie

A refreshing light pasta salad for a main dish luncheon or summer potluck. I like small or medium shell pasta, but elbow, ditalini or bow tie pastas are good choices too.
