This Pasta Salad was amazing. I did add a 1/2 of Red Onion and sprinkled Parmigiana cheese on top. The Red Onion added color and was a huge hit with my party guest. It made a huge bowl and the bowl was empty at the end of party. I will be making this dish again and so will everyone of my party guest, they all wanted the recipe!

This is really delicious. If you are making it ahead and chilling it before serving, don't add the tomatoes until just before serving. Otherwise, they get mushy. I used halved cherry tomatoes instead of large ones. Enjoy!

AWESOME DISH!!
