  • “I really liked this flexible pasta salad! It was very refreshing and a nice change from creamy dressings. My choice of veggies were golden nugget pumpkin and zucchini. I luved the way this recipe uses oven-roasted veggies for the salad. It adds a really nice flavour! I found the garlic was a nice addition, especially roasted.In addition to what you suggested as core elements of the salad, I used fresh parsley, feta and freshly ground pepper. Mmmm, yummy! :)THANKS SO MUCH for sharing this with us, Chef! Ill surely make it again.Made and reviewed for Everyday Is A Holiday Tag Game Octobre 09 (special tag).”
