CREAMY ITALIAN PASTA SALAD



Creamy Italian Pasta Salad image

If you like simple pasta salads you should try this. I love this in the summer but you could have this any time. I didn't see any other recipes like this that used both dressings so I thought I'd share mine. They really do go well together. This is pretty versatile and you can add any veggies that you'd like.

Provided by MTpockets

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 25m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (12 ounce) package tri-color spiral pasta (or pasta of your choice)
1 cup Italian salad dressing (I like good seasons)
1 cup caesar salad dressing
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 medium tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 medium cucumber, peeled and diced
1 green bell peppers or 1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced

Steps:

  • Cook pasta as directed, rinse with cold water and drain well.
  • In a large bowl, combine rest of ingredients and toss to coat.
  • Add pasta and toss to coat.
  • Chill at least 2 hours before serving.
  • *** If pasta "absorbs" the dressing, you may need to add a little more dressing after chill time before serving.
