In this post, I share my easy Cool Summer Casarecce Pasta Salad Recipe. Cool Summer Casarecce Pasta Salad Recipe I think what I love most about the pasta I use in this salad is it really soaks up the flavors quickly.  Most other pasta salads I have made with dressings need to sit overnight.  NOT the Casarecce Pasta!  I share more about that noodle below the video and images.  Check out this video and tell me what you think about this recipe.  Be sure to use the print option included below Printable Recipe Card Available!

Be careful to not over cook the pasta because it will be mushy. I use my Pressure Cooker to prepare noodles in the summer. While pasta is cooking chop up all the ingredients as directed above. Add the prepared cool pasta to a your favorite mixing bowl Gently add salad dressing and toss  On top of the pasta add the remaining ingredients If needed add a little extra dressing so the salad is not dry.  The dressing will soak into the pasta as it sits.
