Contest-Winning Picnic Pasta Salad image

My family's not big on traditional pasta salads made with mayonnaise, so when I served this colorful version that uses Italian dressing, it was a big hit.

  • Salami, Artichoke and Ricotta Pasta Salad. A few of our favorite ingredients united in savory harmony. It's meaty, briny, creamy and tossed in balsamic-mustard vinaigrette for good measure.
  • BLT Pasta Salad. This picnic beauty has all the crunchy elements of the iconic sandwich, minus the bread. We'll take extra black pepper bacon on the side, please.
  • Avocado and Black Bean Pasta Salad. Buttery avocado and easy canned beans boost the protein content big time. We're also betting that this dish will fit right in at your next Taco Tuesday.
  • Roasted Broccoli and Bacon Pasta Salad. If the crispy bacon isn't enough to sway you, maybe the lemon-garlic breadcrumb topping will.
  • Apple, Grape and Pecan Pasta Salad. This fruity pasta salad is all about texture. Think crisp apples, juicy grapes and crunchy chopped pecans. Just be sure not to overcook the pasta on this one especially.
  • Caesar Pasta Salad. Proof that lettuce (and Caesar salad in general) doesn't need to be boring. The dressing calls on avocado instead of eggs for its creamy, rich texture.
  • Cold Sesame Cucumber Noodles. Spiralized cukes are even more refreshing than standard zoodles, don't @ us. And you might have your doubts, but it'll turn you into a tofu fan with just one bite.
  • Meal-Prep Creamy Pasta Salad with Broccoli and Raisins. It's as close to store-bought, old-school mac salad as you can get, only way more flavorful. Chalk it up to swapping gloppy mayo for tangy sour cream and apple cider vinegar.
  • Cold Soba Noodle Salad with Strawberries. Salty miso dressing + spicy shishito and red chile peppers + sweet-tart strawberries = an unexpected yet epic barbecue side.
  • Cold Lemon Zoodles. Proof that simplicity can be downright delicious. Buy your zoodles pre-spiralized, or slice them yourself with a peeler or grater.
