This salad is for all you pasta lovers. The nice part is that its fairly easy to make the cook time is actually off because there is not an option for 12 minutes. Borrowed the picture until I can get mine uploaded. Please also make note that you can add cheese if you wish & can add salt & pepper for taste, I usually dont but some of the family does
