This pasta salad by Cooking1OnOne on YouTube is a healthy dish that can be made in less than 30 minutes. It’s a healthy dish made with Italian dressing that’s filled with fresh ingredients. I love pasta salads because it’s filling with a variety of vegetables and the pasta helps too. There are many ways to make this recipe healthier such as using whole wheat pasta or low-fat mayo. Also, you can skip the mayo for a light pasta salad dressing and just drizzle olive oil and the Italian dressing. However, the mayo adds a nice creaminess to the salad. I used to be obsessed with pasta salads, and they are so easy to make at home rather than purchasing them at the restaurant or store. Plus, you can add preferred vegetables to the pasta salad.
