SUMMER PASTA SALAD



Summer Pasta Salad image

This classic pasta salad, packed with a bounty of summer vegetables and fresh herbs, is the perfect thing to make after a trip to the farmers' market. Look for the tastiest produce at the peak of its season, like crisp radishes and cucumbers, juicy tomatoes and sweet raw corn. We recommend allowing the pasta salad to marinate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound gemelli or other twisted pasta, such as cavatappi
1 cup olive oil
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon honey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 Persian cucumbers, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
2 pints mini heirloom cherry tomatoes or other cherry tomatoes, halved
2 stalks celery, thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
2 cups radishes, thinly sliced
2 cups fresh corn kernels (from 4 about ears)
1 medium shallot, thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, roughly chopped
1/3 cup fresh dill, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold running water to cool the pasta and stop the cooking process. Drain well and set aside.
  • Whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, mustard, honey, 2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Add the pasta, cucumbers, tomatoes, celery, radishes, corn, shallot, parsley and dill. Toss to combine and allow to marinate at room temperature for least 30 minutes or cover and refrigerate up to 8 hours. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve at room temperature.

ENCHANTRESS' SPRING AND SUMMER PASTA SALAD



Enchantress' Spring and Summer Pasta Salad image

This is a favorite of my household. I "break it out" once the crock-pot is stored away and the sun emerges. It's a lovely accent to the lighter meals of spring and summer.

Provided by Ebony Enchantress

Categories     Spring

Time 15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (3/4 ounce) garlic & herb salad dressing mix (prepared, use 1/4 cup of oil for less fat)
12 ounces rotini pasta (Tri-color, prepared)
8 1/2 ounces artichoke hearts (drained)
8 1/2 ounces sun-dried tomatoes (drained)
8 1/2 ounces olives (are tasty, but optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare the dressing and pasta ahead. You may opt to prepare the dressing as instructed, but this will boost the fat content. Toss the remaining ingredients in with the pasta and dressing. Chill for a minimum of fifteen minutes before serving.
