Pasta salads are great at mixing two amazing dishes into one, and they’re truly the best of both worlds. Stephanie Melchione is always in the mood to throw together new pasta salad combos, and here are some of the very best we stumbled upon on her food blog The Cozy Cook.
BLT Pasta Salad
Bacon, lettuce, and tomatoes are a match made in heaven, and you can make much more than just sandwiches with this delicious combo. BLT pasta salad puts a healthy twist on this American classic and you have to try making it this summer.
Chicken Caesar Pasta Salad
Caesar salad is never going out of style, but have you ever tried making the pasta salad version of this dish? That’s exactly the idea behind this recipe, made with chicken breast, lettuce, cherry tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, croutons, and homemade Caesar dressing.
Greek Pasta Salad
An icon of Mediterranean cuisine, Greek salad is traditionally made with tomatoes, cucumbers, onion, feta cheese, and olives, and Melchione couldn’t resist adding some pasta to the mix to make it even more delicious.
Italian Pasta Salad
After knocking us off our feet with her Greek pasta salad, Melchione decided to pay homage to another Mediterranean country. Her Italian pasta salad includes such ingredients as pepperoni, salami, mozzarella, veggies, and – of course – pasta!
