A great pasta salad without mayonnaise.
Ingredients:
8 ounces uncooked rotelle pasta or 8 ounces spiral shaped pasta
4 cups broccoli florets, cooked and rinsed with cold water
1 package knorr pesto sauce mix
1/3 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
1 cup cubed mozzarella cheese (about 4 oz.)
salt & fresh ground pepper
Directions:
1. In large bowl, with wire whisk, combine Knorr ® Pesto sauce mix, Olive Oil and vinegar.
2. Cook pasta according to package directions.
3. Add pasta, broccoli, tomatoes and cheese; toss to coat.
4. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.
5. I always prepare the sauce and mix in the grape tomatoes and mozzarella the day before. The day of the party I cook the broccoli and pasta then toss it all together.
