Pasta Salad
Great to keep in the fridge for a
few days and pair with sausages, fried chicken, burger, lambchops, spring rolls
and other fried meats. You can also just add boiled eggs, cooked chicken or
canned tuna anytime you take it out of the fridge and want to have it with
something else or eat it just as it is. It’s so easy to make. If you’re having
a busy week and you can’t cook all the time, this dish can get you through a
few times without having to cook each time. You can have it just as it is or
with something.
It is a take-off from the
traditional chicken macaroni salad. The ingredients are the same except that it
doesn’t have chicken.
Ingredients:
Penne (macaroni, barilla, shells
or any pasta you like) 3 cups
1 diced carrots
1 stalk diced celery
Mixed frozen veggies (corn, peas)
or 1 cup corn kernels, ½ cup cooked peas
¼ cup raisin
1 can pineapple tidbits or canned
pieces
1 cup mayo
1 medium size onion
½ cup of diced cheese (any you
prefer)
Procedure:
1. Cook
the carrots, celery, onion and mixed veggies. Once cooked, put in a large
mixing bowl.
2. Cook
the pasta. Once cooked, add to the cooked veggies
3. Add
the raisin and the pineapple tidbits
4. Add
the cheese and mix well.
5. Add
the mayo and toss well. You can add some more mayo depending on your
preference.
Have fun!
