| I added our favorite veggies and cold cuts to this one. |
Wow, I don't even remember how long I've had this great recipe for pasta salad, but I know it's pretty close to 40 years. It was given to me by a friend, when we lived in Michigan, and I've made it ever since, to the delight of my family!
The basics for this pasta are simple...your favorite pasta, Italian dressing, McCormick's Salad Supreme...and then any veggies, meats or cheese you love! Really, that's it!
Here are some of our favorites! Salami, ham, fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, peppers, onions, artichoke hearts, cucumbers...to name a few! Ha! But, seriously, it's all up to you. Make it meat-free if you like, it's going to taste great whatever you do. Make it your own and "play with your food!"
Ingredients: (The Basics)
1 (12 oz.) box Rotini or your favorite salad pasta
8 oz. Zesty Italian Salad Dressing
1/3 jar McCormick's Salad Supreme Seasoning
1/2 cup cucumber, chopped
1/2 cup green pepper, chopped
1 medium purple or red onion, chopped
1 medium firm red tomato, cubed
3/4 cup green onions, chopped (optional)
Add Italian dressing and 1/3 jar of Salad Supreme seasoning. (This mixture can marinate a few hours or overnight before continuing.)
Mix in chopped vegetables (and any other goodies you like) and chill.
A Tip from Grammy:
-Add a couple of tablespoons of grated Romano or Parmesan for extra flavor.
-Switch up your pasta to spaghetti (cover your shirt, this splatters, LOL)
Be encouraged!

-Add cut up ham, salami or pepperoni and more, including your favorite cheeses.
Be encouraged!
