I have always loved how you present yourself as so connected with the audience even though it’s just you filming. It’s so comforting to hear you call me “friend” along with everyone else. There is something so special about being connected through simple life tasks in such a busy world. It’s a safe place for us all to rest and laugh with you. Thank you Becky!
I couldn’t have said it better myself. Ive been with her since 2020 when she was still working as a dental hygienist. I just adore her and the beautiful way she and Josh support and communicate in life!
Love pasta salads, and these did not disappoint. Just a tip when you have to cook multiple pastas. Get a pasta pot. It has a big insert, all you do is lift it up, and the water will drain out. Put the insert back in after you removed the pasta and you are set to make your next batch of pasta. You might have to refill a bit of water each time. But it would be much faster.
Or use an electric kettle to boil you water. I often see US youtubers boiling huge pots of water on the stove without lid and wonder how long it takes to boil that pot of water😂
I have similar insert for steaming for my instapot (I know Becky has one too) and cook my pasta in it under pressure - minutes on package divided by 2, round up for pasta salad, round down for ordinary pasta if odd number
I make pasta salad ALL the time. A trick I learned over the years is cook the pasta till very al dente (think white line in pasta when cut in half) and then rinse under cold water and let drain fully. It will stop the cooking process of the pasta, prevent mushy and overcooked pasta in the salad, and reduce the amount of extra liquid into your salad. It also saves your ingredients from par-cooking with the hot pasta. The mayo/sour cream will be absorbed into the pasta and finish the pasta so it's amazing! Love watching your channel!
I always run cold water over my pasta when makng pasta salad to cool it completely. . It always surprises me when I see someone making the salad with steaming noodles.
yes I always rinse with cold water, If I put hot pasta into a cream base like mayo or yogurt it separates and the mayo does funky things...like put too hot potatoes in southern style mustard/mayo potato salad....the pasta must be cool or cold not steaming...
I just really appreciate you talk through each step and chat a bit here and there. I don’t like videos that have loud music every other second. Watching your videos is just so relaxing (and makes me want to eat😂)
I’ve been binging your videos the last couple weeks since I found you! I recently moved from a busy city to a very remote little town. I started learning a bit about homesteading but it’s been quite overwhelming. Finding your videos has been really inspiring and makes it a little easier to navigate this new change! THANK YOU!
If you haven’t check out Roots & Refuge farm as well as the farmers table. She loves Becky too. A combo of these three channels has all of your bases covered
Hi Becky, I am from New England and Worcestershire where it is popular and it is pronounced “ worcester”shear” ! We in New England have always pronounced it and I am 81 .. lol
I always drain and run cold water over my pasta after its done cooking so it will stop the cooking process. Plus it will be cold before I add it to my mix. All these salads look and sound delicious 😋.
Becky, I'm sure you would love to grow your own peppercorns. I took seeds right from my cabinet. Yellow peppercorns. They had the prettiest yellow flowers, and the seed pods are sorta like a green bean pod with the little peppercorn seeds inside.
I'm so glad you made the salads with different pastas and all four looked delicious. With 108 degrees on Thursday I will definitely make it with grilled chicken to keep it light and refreshing.
I LOVE salads of all kinds! My summer favorite is either a greek salad with feta cheese, cucumber, onion and tomato or a watermelon salad which has watermelon, feta cheese, red onion and cucumber if you want. It hydrates you well and is super tasty with some grilled chicken on the side. Growing up, we often had pasta salad but we would us a vinegarette as a dressing? I guess everyone does it differently.
Hi, I have been watching you for just a little while now and your family has been such an inspiration to me. The way you preserve the health of your friends, food and family is lovely to say the least. You always try and it is so beautiful how you care about everyone's health. Thank You!
One thing that may help is to rinse the noodles with cold water after cooking. It cools them Off and gets rid of some of the starch. If you use the spray nozzle on your kitchen faucet it will work better.
THANK YOU! for putting your flowers on display on your shelf! that place is such an opportunity to display your flowers or even veggies, like you did your pumpkins last year....love having that space decorated.
Regarding the “beach” wagon you saw at Costco on July, I will give it 2 thumbs up! I use it all around my yard for gardening. So much more usable for me than a wheelbarrow. I think you would definitely enjoy. Love your RUclips channel. Thank you
Mmmm, those pasta salads all look absolutely divine! What a great thing to bring to the beach. Cool, filling, nutritious and packed with flavor. I haven't made a pasta salad in ages, but you've got us salivating. It's time! 😄 Also, you actually CAN grow your own limes and lemons here (I'm in Portland), at least in summer. We have a Meyer lemon tree and a Bearss lime tree in pots. Both produce lots of fruit and look fantastic out in the garden laden with their treasures. The blossoms smell divine in spring, and the fruits can be left on the trees for quite a long time without going bad, although the limes will start to lighten to almost yellow and continue to get sweeter (less tart) over time. We put them on platforms with castors and roll them into the greenhouse over the winter, but the friends of ours who inspired us to get them put theirs into their (relatively dark) garage in winter and they do just fine as well. If you had a nice south facing window you could actually bring them inside and they'll continue producing fruit basically year round! But in our case they're in the greenhouse and kind of go dormant in the cool/cold winters here. But come spring, when they start to bloom as the days get longer and it's consistently warm enough, they pick right up and go back out into the garden. There's only the two of us and despite both trees being under 4' tall at this point, they produce far more fruit than we can use in the summer. So at the end of the season or when fruits need to be harvested and we don't need one, we juice them into ice cube trays and freeze them for use as needed in our citrus off season. We also have a kafir lime tree and keep leaves and some of the limes frozen as well for Thai recipes, but of course they have a different flavor to the limes we're all used to here.
I’d like to see you make traditional Caesar I think most people don’t realize it’s made with anchovies. It’s so delicious though and I know you would love it, Becky!
Thanks Becky! Nothing like having “one of those days” coming home from work and being able to decompress with Becky and all of her wonderful recipes- I am making that Ditalini pasta salad tomorrow! I have all the ingredients 🙌🏻🙌🏻. Dit a Lini
My grandmother made caprese salad every Christmas except she used orecchiette, homemade mozzarella, Roma tomato, basil, dill, and balsamic dressing. Always cool your pasta completely so that it soak up the dressing and become mushy. My grandmother used to put 2 cups of ice into the pasta to cool it rapidly.
The pasta salads are a very nice surprise for me. I just happened to have made a pasta salad this morning and you have given me new ways to elevate the flavors. Thank you Becky for making my day. 🥰
Dear Becky, you have inspired me with your Caprese pasta salad to not only make it for dinner tonight, but I am reminded that I have small amounts of enchilada ingredients (red sauce, olives, black beans, cheese, corn and a little onion) that with a little mayo/sour cream and spices I can turn these leftovers into a yummy salad too! Thank you friend for your wonderful channel!
I just made the Mexican corn pasta sald. I doubled Mexican sour cream but didn't add mayo, grilled the corn on the cob with butter, and added leftover chicken to it. I tried a few bites and it tastes really good!!
Love all these recipes Becky! I can't wait to make them for my family. Thanks so much for sharing your talent in the kitchen with us! Hugs from Canada xx
Those look great! Love your meal prep videos & anyone who is reading this & has never meal prepped your missing out on "self/rest time 😊 thank you Becky ❤
I love the way your eyes tell us how much you love the taste!! When you’re about to taste something, I always wait for the eyes! And I like that sometimes it will need more seasoning or something and I know it before you say it! Very suspenseful!! 😮😊❤
I love pasta salads. I am now gluten free because of some health issues. But, I am going to adapt these into gluten free pasta and enjoy them too. Thanks Becky, I really look forward to all of your videos.
Oh that mexican street corn pasta looks delicious! My husband doesn't like pasta salads but he's a huge fan of Mexican Street corn. I think I can turn over a new leaf with this recipe! THANK YOU 😊
Those look really good!! For us, I know more jalepenos would have gone in, and all of the sundried tomatoes in the other salad. Pasta salad just says Summer to me!
hey becky, in my family we jokingly call it "what's this here sauce" and have a great laugh. thanks for more amazing recipes. love your addition of the balsamic vinegar. continued blessings.🕊
Pasta salas are the best summer dish for lunch or as a dinner side. Easy to prepare, perfect to take with you to work (or the beach like you said). Thanks for these new inspirations and all my best wishes to you! Live from Germany 🫶
omg girl, no wonder you are in that kitchen all day, bless your heart. just re use that boiling water after you lift those noodles out, place them in a bowl of cold water. use that spider spoon... just keep the hot water going
I made the Caesar pasta salad with dressing in recipe and bowtie pasta, the optional add ins were roasted red pepper, green onion, tomato, peas and spinach was added with each serving. My goodness this was a great recipe, appreciate you sharing Becky!
Yummy, I love pasta salad, I love using Italian dressing and throwing in the tri color rotini, thin sliced red onion, sliced olives, cherry tomatoes, a pint of my canned chicken or turkey drained and the shredded parmesan cheese, you can do this with ranch dressing also. In place of mayo you can use greek yogurt also, I love the sour cream yogurt mixture its really good. ooohhh that cilantro dressing looks so good I will have to try that one. I do that with recipes also, I used to print out 3-4 recipes and take things from each of them that I liked to make my own version and I still do that.
Becky! My mouth is watering, they ALL look so delicious. Also look at your pretty flowers in the back so gorgeous! The cherry tomatoes are looking spectacular. Thank you for sharing friend.
LOVE the street corn pasta salad 🤤 The cheese is called Cotija (Co-tee-ha) and yes it's similar to a feta. If you can't find that cheese parmesan or Romano is a great substitute. Definitely going to make these for my next cookout 😋 Thanks for sharing these doll 💗
You had me at bacon! I am also a pasta lover and really enjoy new recipes! I also clean out my strainers and fling pasta on the floor for which my four legged vacuum is VERY appreciative of! And I also LOVE when your videos drop. I'm always looking for new recipes to make food exciting ALL the time! Thank you for the ideas.
You made me laugh out loud when…. You said you follow the recipe to a T 😊👩🍳 I don’t think I have ever not seen you tweak a recipe it’s in your instinct and blood to cook and bake from your heart… which is what makes you so good at what you do 😉👩🍳❤️thank you for the great recipes 😋can’t wait to try the Caesar salad one!
My daughter doesn’t like pasta salads because of the mayo but those are some really nice recipes. I think she would love the pesto one. ❤❤❤ Thanks for sharing 😊😊😊
Becky I’m trying all of these. They all sound absolutely delicious. I love pasta salads and such an easy thing to bake for dinner or gatherings. Can’t wait for your next video. Enjoy the beach!! I live in Washington state and we love the ocean❣️❣️
Hey , even tossing in day old bread chunks or croutons but just before and YESSSS the balsamic! Thank you so much for these killer ideas! I love your cooking, harvesting, canning etc
Thank you very much for all your hard work Becky. You have helped me so much learning how to cook and mix different flavours I am gaining more confidence in the kitchen and that is all because of you. Thank you
Looks so good love pasta in summer ! Thank u ! U are glowing these days . Summer is your time of year . Gardening make u happy I can see that ! Love your videos ❤
i used to bring a pasta salad to work potlucks all the time that had a caesar dressing base and people went crazy for it! when i left my job they even asked me to share the recipe. something about it is just so delicious and way better than normal mayo or italian dressing in pasta salad
@@J_LOVES_ME absolutely! you need 1 lb rotini cooked, drained and cooled 2 bell peppers diced 1/2 red onion diced 1 small package cherry tomatoes halved a handful of whatever fresh herbs you like chopped like parsley, basil, or even cilantro 3/4 cup cucumbers diced or sweet peas 1 cup grated parmesan dressing is 1 cup caesar, 1 cup italian dressing, and 1/2 cup mayo it seems like a lot of dressing but the pasta will absorb so much. enjoy!!
I've heard you say different things about foods your parents didn't eat and it is so interesting because I'm from the South and everything has mayo in it if it's a salad. I think y'all are just way healthier. The Mexican street corn one looks delish but I hate cilantro. I've made it before without the cilantro and it's still really good. I would love to see an update on your little one!!
All of these recipes look amazing. I really like the different pastas you used, like farfalle and orecchiette, and ditaliini, not just the usual macaroni or shells.
We have a local oil and vinegar tasting room that has a 17 year aged balsamic that is sooooo good! It is exactly what you described. Almost a reduction but it isn’t at all! It is so sweet and flavorful. A must in our house!
I never make pasta salads because there are several mayo-haters in my family. Although they mostly also don't care for sour cream I think I could get away with Greek yogurt or even cottage cheese. Thanks for helping me increase my options.
I tried the detalini pasta for the first time at 4th of July. I stirred it when placed in the water. I used a lot of water but when I returned to stir it again a good portion was stuck on the bottom of the pot. I unstuck a good portion but I found I like other shapes better. You did a good job fixing it.
I liked the video before I started watching . I just live Becky. This woman is absolutely amazing, I learned so much from her. I start each day praying with her dad's youtube channel. Amazing daughter and father!! ❤🙏🫶
Street corn pasta salad?!?! Yes please!!! I recently found a street corn dip at Costco and oh my goodness!!! So good! All these recipes looked so good! Adding chicken is a great idea! ❤
I was thinking about your family not liking nuts... Nuts are usually added for a crunch factor. What about substituting toasted croutons? You'd have to add them at the last minute, just like you could add the Romain lettuce right before serving. It would add that crunch factor you're leaving out. The croutons could even be seasoned (with similar seasonings found in the dressing) for extra flavors. 💕🌞🌵😷
I always add anchovies paste to my home made Caesar dressing. I would also wait to add the bacon to the salad, it is going to go soft in the mixture, I would add it at serving time.
@@JD-qf6zl it does, but the paste is more concentrate and you can a better taste using the paste. You can get anywhere. I kept a tube of it in my fridge.
These all look fabulous! I’ve been looking for some deviations from the standard and this is it. I have always said di-tuh-lee-nee and Google agreed! 🎉
You inspired me to make bagels today! They weren’t fabulous but better than I thought it would be for a first try. Going to try again and make breakfast sandwiches. Thanks for the inspiration!
I love a good pasta salad and every summer I just crave it. I do substitute salt with grated parm cheese....adds the salty taste and the additional cheese is always good.
I have always loved how you present yourself as so connected with the audience even though it’s just you filming. It’s so comforting to hear you call me “friend” along with everyone else.

And I would think the hot pasta would melt the mozzarella cheese but it didn't seem to for Becky,
Is this one you made with orzo and jalapeños able to print. What is it called? I can smell it from here in Fl. Thank you for sharing. Love learning
I was just coming here to say that running the pasta under cold water really improves the outcome
yes I always rinse with cold water, If I put hot pasta into a cream base like mayo or yogurt it separates and the mayo does funky things...like put too hot potatoes in southern style mustard/mayo potato salad....the pasta must be cool or cold not steaming...

You know it’s good when Becky’s eyes get big and she takes 2 or 3 bites without saying a word.
Diced or sliced grilled chicken on any one of your pasta salads would make a great summer meal. So simple, quick and delicious!
Add cubed salami would be great too.

I love the sound of your chopping! 😊❤
Dit a leany. That's the pronunciation of the pasta in the first recipe. I love Ditalini for pasta salads.
Except the first “i” is also an ee sound. Dee-tah-lee-nee. Italian vowels don’t change based on where they’re placed like in English.

Hey , even tossing in day old bread chunks or croutons but just before and YESSSS the balsamic! Thank you so much for these killer ideas! I love your cooking, harvesting, canning etc
I just found that street corn pasta salad! So happy you are making it. Been wanting to make it for my family and friends.
Thank you very much for all your hard work Becky. You have helped me so much learning how to cook and mix different flavours I am gaining more confidence in the kitchen and that is all because of you. Thank you
Looks so good love pasta in summer ! Thank u ! U are glowing these days . Summer is your time of year . Gardening make u happy I can see that ! Love your videos ❤
i used to bring a pasta salad to work potlucks all the time that had a caesar dressing base and people went crazy for it! when i left my job they even asked me to share the recipe. something about it is just so delicious and way better than normal mayo or italian dressing in pasta salad
I'd love that recipe! Can you share?
@@J_LOVES_ME absolutely!
you need 1 lb rotini cooked, drained and cooled
2 bell peppers diced
1/2 red onion diced
1 small package cherry tomatoes halved
a handful of whatever fresh herbs you like chopped like parsley, basil, or even cilantro
3/4 cup cucumbers diced or sweet peas
1 cup grated parmesan
dressing is 1 cup caesar, 1 cup italian dressing, and 1/2 cup mayo
it seems like a lot of dressing but the pasta will absorb so much. enjoy!!
You are so fortunate to have such great family! I wish I had that. Love watching your videos ❤
I've heard you say different things about foods your parents didn't eat and it is so interesting because I'm from the South and everything has mayo in it if it's a salad. I think y'all are just way healthier. The Mexican street corn one looks delish but I hate cilantro. I've made it before without the cilantro and it's still really good. I would love to see an update on your little one!!
Those salads look so good! Love the flowers on the shelf.
All of these recipes look amazing. I really like the different pastas you used, like farfalle and orecchiette, and ditaliini, not just the usual macaroni or shells.
We have a local oil and vinegar tasting room that has a 17 year aged balsamic that is sooooo good! It is exactly what you described. Almost a reduction but it isn’t at all! It is so sweet and flavorful. A must in our house!
I never make pasta salads because there are several mayo-haters in my family. Although they mostly also don't care for sour cream I think I could get away with Greek yogurt or even cottage cheese. Thanks for helping me increase my options.
Tip. Use the back of your knife to scoop up things so you don’t dull your knife.
I love your recipes and I can’t tell you how much you inspire me! I’m Italian and I love to cook 😂
I love your videos and look forward to new content all the time. I rerun all the time. Haha!! Love the flowers in the background 🌸
Love your videos Becky!! I got my mom and daughter watching now too☺️❤️
I tried the detalini pasta for the first time at 4th of July. I stirred it when placed in the water. I used a lot of water but when I returned to stir it again a good portion was stuck on the bottom of the pot. I unstuck a good portion but I found I like other shapes better. You did a good job fixing it.
I liked the video before I started watching .
I just live Becky. This woman is absolutely amazing, I learned so much from her.
I start each day praying with her dad's youtube channel.
Amazing daughter and father!!

Thanks Becky for the delicious salad recipes!!! I can’t wait to make them.
Street corn pasta salad?!?! Yes please!!! I recently found a street corn dip at Costco and oh my goodness!!! So good! All these recipes looked so good! Adding chicken is a great idea! ❤
I love pasta salad. I have to give these a try. Thanks Becky 😊
Hi 👋 friend.!
I'm going to add these for salads to my recipe list.
Delicious.!!
Thank you and God bless and keep your family safe 🙏🏼
I was thinking about your family not liking nuts... Nuts are usually added for a crunch factor. What about substituting toasted croutons? You'd have to add them at the last minute, just like you could add the Romain lettuce right before serving. It would add that crunch factor you're leaving out. The croutons could even be seasoned (with similar seasonings found in the dressing) for extra flavors. 💕🌞🌵😷
The cheese is called Cotija (co-tee-ha)
Please take this comment to the top!
If you ever look for an exciting/unique dressing for pasta salad: I use equal parts ajvar and Joghurt (and then I season to taste). It's so good
I always add anchovies paste to my home made Caesar dressing. I would also wait to add the bacon to the salad, it is going to go soft in the mixture, I would add it at serving time.
I think Worchestershire sauce contains anchovies.
@@JD-qf6zl it does, but the paste is more concentrate and you can a better taste using the paste. You can get anywhere. I kept a tube of it in my fridge.
Thanks Becky I needed some ideas for pasta salads❤❤❤
These all look fabulous! I’ve been looking for some deviations from the standard and this is it. I have always said di-tuh-lee-nee and Google agreed! 🎉
You inspired me to make bagels today! They weren’t fabulous but better than I thought it would be for a first try. Going to try again and make breakfast sandwiches. Thanks for the inspiration!
I've used this trick to cut small tomatoes, and grapes, such a time saver!!

I love a good pasta salad and every summer I just crave it. I do substitute salt with grated parm cheese....adds the salty taste and the additional cheese is always good.
