nice recipe
How much pasta will you use for this salad if you’re having 36 people? I’m making it for 30 on Thursday and got three pounds of orecchiette. Maybe will do 2 boxes only. It’s being served with a few other dishes.
Can you make this pasta salad a day ahead?
Can this sit overnight for a work potluck?
Laura you definitely have done this video! I made this salad every year with my basil. Thank you for the updated version!! ❤
oh yummy! This looks amazing!😁👍
Laura saving summer every year one salad at a time
Lovely fresh salad! Regarding the Pesto. I purchase the large plastic container at Cost Co. I freeze the entire jar in my freezer and it is pretty easy to scoop out what I need as I need some. Never goes to waste! I learned this from the comment section here on YouTube.
Looks beautiful. I’m going to save the video and make it in the Aussie summer.
We haven’t had any orecchiette in our stores here since Covid I miss it
I’m going to make this for our family 4th of July party. How many does this serve?
It’s a really good recipe!!! I made it for the women’s ministry
