At my house we love fresh veggies and summer days! Our baby girl is almost due and we are trying to enjoy and cherish the last few weeks as a family of four. This simple side can be thrown together in just a short time and lasts us a few meals, giving me more time with my little guys and a little more time off my swollen feet. 😉

So, for this simple pasta salad, you can add more or less veggies based on your family’s taste! Sometimes I throw in some chopped broccoli… or green onions…  The leftovers are perfect for lunch the next day too! This recipe makes a good sized bowl and is great side to take to family get togethers and backyard parties!
