Decided on pasta salad for an early dinner. I love this dish for many reasons. Very easy to prepare. Does not heat up the kitchen. And you can add whatever you want to change it up.
I love all kinds of pasta. I have the corkscrew type for today's dinner.
I added a little splash of EVOO (extra virgin olive oil), a few black olives, pepperoni, cucumber, shredded cheese (monterey jack, colby and cheddar) and some fresh garden tomatoes.
Those fresh tomatoes from my neighbor came just in time. And a few Ritz crackers on the side.

@CarolDM That is what I always do also.
And another favorite salad around here is my creamy cucumber salad. Its just a little sauce that I make and let the cucumber slices sit in over night and my hubby and both our son as well as our daughter-in-law go crazy over it. Now that I think about it, I should make some this weekend.

Yum! That sounds so good with it being hot outside. We have this salad sometimes too but my brother adds a little salad dressing. My mind is not cooperating this morning as I can't remember what type of dressing. It's right on the tip of my tongue. I hate when this happens.

@kobesbuddy I eat it often, and you change it up every time if you want.

You prepare pasta salad just like I do! The pepperoni does the trick with Salad Supreme sprinkled.

My mouth is salivating just thinking about the dish you described. I love pasta salad. It's been quite a long while since I've last had any.
