ITALIAN PASTA SALAD TO SERVE FOR GRILLING SEASON

 Good Morning kindred spirits.....
the days are heating up as we feel
April days flying by us .....time is going so quickly it seems....



Spring in Texas can bring rain and thunderstorms 
so it's good to soak in some sunshine on those days
where it's ideal for living outdoors...with sunscreen and a
hat for sure......
Today, I am bringing you a delicious pasta salad
which I found on Instagram!

It is so easy to put together and does not require
a lot of ingredients!
The secret to this salad is a particular dressing.....





Italian Pasta Salad
One package fresh cheese tortellini
fresh cherry tomatoes
ripe olives
shredded parmesan cheese
fresh shrimp, optional
Girard's Olde Venice Italian Salad Dressing




This pasta salad is versatile,,,,you can add whatever you like
as I added shrimp to ours...and the quantity of ingredients to suit your taste.



Everyone said, "this is a winner!"



We followed up with a perfect summer sweet ending....


Peach Pie....good food brings happy faces......

  1. That salad looks so good! I don't do shrimp, but grilled chicken with it would be wonderful! Oh, and that pie! Delightful!

  2. Betsy, I read your blog religiously and occasionally I leave a comment to tell you how much I enjoy it. It's been awhile since I've done so....so today is the day to again show some appreciation. I love reading your words and soaking in all the beautiful photos you share with us. Brings me a little dose of happiness each and every time and I want to thank you for it. I'm from Arkansas and I'm definitely a kindred spirit...years ago spent plenty of time in Jackson and have very fond memories of Mississippi. Blessings to you and yours!
