10+ Perfect Pasta Salads

During the summer months I am always craving salads. I like to make a big batch and use leftovers for our meals. We will bbq many of meals throughout the week and salads are perfect to have along side. Salads are great with hot dogs, burgers, chicken, sausage, just about any main dish you are serving.

Pasta Salads are one of those summer must haves. For years I would make traditional macaroni and potato salads. Those are great but with so many other options, I have had to venture outside the box.

I’ve compiled a list of 10 + different pasta salads that we have tried or considering giving a try. I thought it would be great to share them with all of you. It’s ok to break out of the norm once in a while. Honestly, don’t be surprised if you happen to find some new family favorites here too.
