Caprese Pasta Salad

“America’s fascination with pasta salads has taken us a long way from the original macaroni salad. In the last few decades, pasta salads have become colorful and fresh, relying on vinaigrettes and an array of seasonal vegetables, cheeses, meats, poultry, and seafood to help them sparkle. Pasta salads without mayonnaise are especially nice because they don’t need the refrigeration that mayonnaise-based salads do.” – Marsha
