This pasta salad is very fresh, delicious and easy to prepare.
I love to prepare this salad in spring and summer, for outdoor meals that don't require a lot of preparation or as a dinner idea when I want to enjoy something tasty and quick to prepare. You can serve it with meat, chicken, tuna or on its own and it looks great! It has a delicious harmony of flavors and textures thanks to the vegetables and cheese, try it!
