    It was good but I felt it was missing something. Maybe it was the Italian Dressing I used. I will try it again and add something to add some zing. - 9/14/09

    This is a good pasta salad. My boyfriend liked it but I think something was missing...maybe I am just not a pasta girl because it seems like everyone else loved it! - 8/15/09

    Hope you enjoy it!!! It's hard to stop at one serving, but honestly if you have two it's really not that bad.
