Easy Pasta Salad

July 28, 2015 by Great Grub, Delicious Treats

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Salads are always so tasty and delicious, no matter what kind you make. This easy pasta salad is super good, it’s vegan, and this can be made in no time! Now that summer is in full swing, making a pasta salad for your next potluck or barbecue, couldn’t be easier.

Easy Pasta Salad

I was searching for different salad dressings that were vegan, and this Kraft® Zesty Italian Dressing and Marinade was perfect! We try to avoid oils most of the time, but on this day, we enjoyed our pasta salad, oil and all.

Easy Pasta Salad

There are many different ingredients that you can add to this easy pasta salad. If you love cheese, dice some up and add it in, but since we are vegan, I left out the cheese. There are many additional items you could add to this recipe, so use your favorite ingredients to make it your own. I was craving a pasta salad and this just hit the spot. Easy and simple!

Easy Pasta Salad

When I said “easy,” I wasn’t kidding! Just boil your pasta, cut up your tomatoes and cucumbers, and then add the rest of the ingredients together, and that’s it! Stick it in the fridge to chill and then enjoy!
