If you are going to have it the next day, it is better to wait to add the tomatoes to just before you are going to serve it or at least the same day you serve it. Otherwise they get mushy.
Yes! That's an excellent tip. 👏🏼
I use whole grape tomatoes so they don’t get mushy.
Is it weird that I like it when the tomatoes are macerated in with the rest of the salad?
Just asking....
@@christianoliver3572I love it that way as well! I even marinate my tomatoes in the fridge for several hours before making Tomato Burrata Salad.
@@conniesisco6468 I live down here in Corpus Christi and grow all kinds of tomatoes almost year round.
I cut grape tomatoes in half, make a simple vinaigrette with olive oil, red wine or 4 yo DOCG balsamic vinegar, mustard, and finely cut garlic or shallot.
Let that marinate overnight then toss that in with fresh greens the next day.
It's the best salad you'll have.
That’s delicious… Making it tomorrow for Super Bowl Sunday..
OMGosh Angelica! This is almost identical to my recipe! I leave out the black olives because my husband cannot stand them, and I use Wishbone Robusto Italian dressing. Everything else is the same, and you're absolutely right, it's the best pasta salad EVER!
Use my secret black seedless hrapes........
I forgot to mention I made my own copycat Olive Garden dressing it was great
One of my favorite pasta bowls.
Delicious ❤👍🏾
I make this pasta salad with Greek salad dressing but I chop the red onions first and then add them to a bowl with the dressing and let the onions soak while I prepare everything else. It takes that harsh bite out of the red onions but leaves the flavor.
I could eat the whole bowl 😋 I recently found Goya brand black olives at my HEB. Great brand, much deeper olive flavor.
Love Love Black Olives 🫒
I like to add McCormick Salad Supreme Seasoning. It's very similar to all of the same seasonings Angelica uses. This salad is so delicious.
How is it with that dressing?!
Looks amazing.. can’t wait to try it out. I totally agree with the tri color just hits different 😂😂💕💕
I like your idea of pasta salad. Definitely trying it
If you want to pump up the volume on the flavor you can take a little bit of the dressing along with the dry spices and toss the pasta with them right after draining and before spreading on the baking sheet to cool. As it cools the pasta will absorb the dressing and flavors from the spices. The oil in the dressing will also make the pasta less sticky/clumpy when it comes time to mix everything together.
I'm 56 and have watched many many food tutorials...not only is this recipe the bomb, but you are very pleasant and sweet to show new beginners everything they need to know..very simple and easy directions ..I'm subscribing and liked !!!
My grandmother always rinsed with cold water. It stops the pasta from cooking further. Then lay it on the pan to dry.
I could probably eat a VAT of pasta salad. Literally my fave food since I was a little girl. Thank you!!
This is one of my favorite pasta salads. My daughter doesn't like fresh tomatoes, so we use sun dried tomatoes instead. It's delicious either way.
Grow your own.
Grow several varieties of heirlooms if you can.
Tomatoes can be grown somehow in just about any American household.
Hi Angelica. I just made this pasta salad. It is so delicious! I just put the salad into the fridge. Amazingly I was able to find the Olive Garden Dressing at Target. It is almost 1:00 am in Hawaii. I have been thinking about making this for awhile. I had all the ingredients so I went for it. Mozzarella pearls are the Bomb.🤣Love and blessings from Hawaii❤️🙏🌺❤️
I bring cukes in separate container. Some people dont like them plus they get weepy. Cant wait to make it. YUM!
I always use the Good Seasons Zesty Italian dressing packet and use olive oil.
I followed this recipe for our Memorial Day cookout. A huge success! I’m getting calls now to prepare for others! Thank You!
😊🙌🏼
I have put blanched broccoli, sliced grllied chicken, grilled shrimp and roasted brussel spouts in my pasta salads, but my favorite is blanched/ roasted asparagus, artichoke hearts, and sauteed spinach!! If you want protein wuthout the meat, use garbanzo and kidney beans. That's what's so great about pasta salads, you can clean the fridge out and make it with what you got!!! I do agree, tri color rotini is the best, but my daughter loves tri colored cheese tortellini . It's such a versatile dish. I've even mixed in a little mayo to the dressing for a creamy texture. 😊
Try Kalamata olives next time you make this salad. They are delicious and will definitely have an Italian flare. I make a very similar salad too. Yours looks delicious.
Yum!!!! I love the Olive Garden dressing for pasta salad!!
I'm going to be a hit with this salad at our next fellowship!! TY
I make a pasta salad just like this, but I use cheese tortellini in place of the regular pasta. It is fabulous! It can be used as a side dish or a main meal.
Great tip, will try!
I use dressing from Aldi, it is the Specialty Garlic Balsamic. It is sooo good and sweet.
Just in time for an upcoming potluck! Sounds yummy. Thank you!
Yummy..im making it for our potluck at work..thank you
Tip: instead of letting the pasta cool on the pan, rinse with cold water immediately when draining to prevent pasta from overcooking 👍
Nice voice and manner - no screaming is a relief. Recipe is also nice
Girl, I have an amazing pasta salad recipe too, and when that Olive Garden dressing came out, I knew it was gonna be good. That stuff just works SO WELL for pasta salads.
I also use Olive Garden dressing in my pasta salad! It's so good, like it was made for pasta salad. Great video, I like the small pepperonis going in my salad next time!
I love how you make things easy!
Mine is similar with a few variations. I have recently started using Olive Garden Parmesan Ranch dressing, but I don’t add Parm cheese.
In addition to the tomato, I add broccoli and small cut up carrots for additional veggies and crunch. Try sprinkling slivered almonds on top just before serving. As you would say, “So good!”.
That's mine and my family's favorite pasta and dressing, it's so good 😋 try it with broccoli and feta, it gives it such a great flavor too!
Looks delicious and easy to make. Have been away from youtube for awhile so nice to see you again Angelica.
I’ve been making this pasta salad for 20 years and it’s always a hit. I agree that Olive Garden dressing is the way to go but if I didn’t have any, I’ve used any Italian dressing I’ve had on hand. I’ve also tried string cheese cut into bite size pieces and I’ve also used shrimp as my protein. Another veg is jarred mushrooms. As someone mentioned earlier, if you are making this in advance, the tomatoes will get soft. So will the cucumbers. I think it’s best that the salad sits at least 4 hours, if not overnight so that the pasta can absorb some of the dressing, then add your tomatoes and cucumber.
Thank you so much for sharing this! This will be the one I will use from here on out. You can’t beat this. Excellent!!!
Ohh that looks so delicious 😋!!
Just looking at this lady I know she can cook I be making her recipes for couple years now no disappointments
My favourite pasta salad is made with cheese tortellini, and I add chopped artichoke hearts, sundried tomatoes, and olives. I mix it with greek dressing with feta. Sometimes I add some chopped salami or whatever I have on hand.
YUM-Ooo
I used to binge watch you pre pandemic. I rediscovered you now. Your recipes are so up my alley. I'm coming back mama!
Made this for dinner a few days ago. It's really good. We enjoyed it very much. The only sub we made was green olives instead of black olives.
I made this today! Absolutely delicious!
This is how I make it most of the time and I think it’s perfect but I also like to swap in feta cheese (or feta & grated parm), diced peperoncini, and diced green olives. Pasta salad is super nostalgic to me, like a staple food.
I was trying to find a good pasta salad recipe today. Thank you thank you. I’ll use your recipe instead of the one I found
I make this pasta salad and folks love it. Low fat Zesty Italian dressing works well too in this dish. I know it is said not to rinse pasta, but I have too. I rinse it to remove excess starch. I drain the pasta very well. I don’t have a problem with my sauces and seasonings clinging to my rinsed pasta.
How beautiful and colorful it is .Looks delicious. I'll be making it.😊👍
Gosh, it’s so beautiful too!
Yum!! That's the best way to make pasta salad!
Im in love with that recipe. Subbed.
Thank you! 😃🙌🏼
Very colorful yummy looking pasta 👍🏼

add mild banana pepper rings some Claussen pickle chunks for added flavor
Thanks for inspiring me to get back in the kitchen and cook. You and your husband are a great cooking team.
Been wanting a perfect pasta salad recipe. I think I've found it. Can't wait to try. Thank you for sharing!
I’m obsessed with making this now so thank you. 😂 It’s just sooo good and a million times better than that weird pasta salad from the deli!
Love a good pasta salad ❤.
Prepared this for hubby and me. It's zesty and delicious. Love the red pepper flakes and parmesan 😍🤤😍 hubby loves it!!
This is such a nice thing to make to have amazing leftovers in the fridge, a gift that keeps on giving. You know your tomorrow self will thank you :P
I heard someone says once, that you should run cold water in the sink as you’re draining hot pasta. Better for your sink pipes.
My plumber recommended that as well
I'm sitting here making black eye peas with hamhocks and neck bones, and cornbread; but i'm drooling over that pasta salad. 😍😄
I made the pasta salad two times with a homemade dressing I took the first batch to my gun club for a block shoot and it was a big hit everybody liked it. Second batch went to a family picnic and it all got gone . Then I found the Olive Garden dressing in store . Next time I’ll use that
That looks delicious, will definitely try it minus the tomatoes, love Olive Garden dressing!
Been making this for years but the Parmesan n garlic bread twists is a very welcome addition, thank you Mam, I love it
Looks wonderful.
