Hey all! Hope you're ready to enjoy the holiday tomorrow!
This pasta salad is a MUST for your BBQ and pot luck needs this summer! Classic and fresh flavors of Italian dressing, fresh herbs, tomatoes, and olives. I also added in some artisan almond-based cheese for a little tang! Feel free to play around with adding your favorite toppings as well.
Enjoy, my friends! Happy 4th!
