I'm looking for a cold pasta salad recipe. Does anyone have a recipe for pasta salad? The recipe cannot be spicy and cannot have cheese, cream cheese, or tomatoes in it.
This is very good, just leave the tomatoes out. You can play with it add some mushrooms, black olives, etc.
Chilled Spaghetti Salad
1 pound thin spaghetti, broken into 3-inch pieces
2 cucumbers
1 green bell pepper
2 medium tomatoes
2 medium onions
1 small bottle Italian dressing
1/2 (2 ounce) bottle McCormick's Salad Supreme Seasoning
Cook and drain spaghetti; set aside. Peel cucumbers; remove seeds and cut into small pieces. Cut green pepper, tomatoes and onions into small pieces. Mix all ingredients with the spaghetti including seasoning. Pour Italian dressing over all. Let marinate overnight.

You really only need a good Italian salad dressing. I like Newman’s Own. Use whatever you like. I use penne pasta because it’s chewier. Again, you can use whatever you like- spirals, elbow macaroni, bowties. I add thinly sliced carrots, small diced celery, diced red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, cherry or grape tomatoes sliced in half. [you can omit the tomaroes] If you use an entire 16oz box of pasta, you will use about half a bottle of dressing. You can’t mess it up. Just add and stir it up- you’ll know when you have enough. You want everything to be nicely coated and a little bit on the bottom. For that quantity, I add ¼ teaspoon dried basil leaves. It adds a lot to the flavor and to the presentation. If you want, add sliced green onions, broccoli, sliced black olives. Then add ½ cup of grated parmesan (real parmesan, not the stuff in the can). Just chill in the frig for at least an hour. Making the day before works out great. I make this all the time. I brought to a potluck recently, and everyone ate it up.
