The other day I made Jack a casserole with Penne Pasta in it. I cooked the entire box, not knowing how much pasta I would actually need. Since I only used half the box, I sat down and thought about what to do with the other half. This simple and easy recipe is what I came up with!
Penne Pasta Salad
Ingredients:
8 ounces Penne Pasta
1 bottle Poppy Seed Dressing Low Fat
1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
Basil leaves chopped as desired
1 pint Grape Tomatoes, halved
1 cup bite-size Mozzarella Cheese, balls, halved
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Preparation:
Cook pasta as directed on package. Or until tender. Drain well.
Add Pasta and Basil to Poppy Seed Dressing while pasta is still warm, toss to coat. Add tomatoes and cheeses; toss to mix well.
Serve chilled.
My stomach was already growling before I came here. đŸ˜‰
Looks delicious.
