NBR: What do you put in your pasta salad?

I want to make a pasta salad to snack on.  What do you put in yours?  I'm looking for salads with mayo since I don't like vinagrette type salads.

thanks!

    I buy Suddenly Salad pasta salad kits and then add chopped dry salami, olives, chopped red peppers and small cubes of provolone and top with parmesean. Its always a hit!

  • Ohhh one of my favorites is a BLT Pasta salad that is made with shells and bacon and lettuce, tomato, mayo yummm I don't remember where I got the recipe though, probably allrecipes.com

    Now I want some!

  • I use bow tie noodles or sea shell noodles and add mayo, chopped pickles, diced boiled egg and sliced black olives and then I choose either diced ham, real bacon bits or salami.

    You can also add a small amount of mustard or ranch dressing with salt and pepper depending on what you like. 

    Obviously I make it a little different depending on what I am in the mood for, but It always has the same main ingredients and tastes great. Good luck. Now I want some...

  • Pasta, hard salami, pepperoni, cheese, tomatoes, Kraft's Zesty Italian dressing, and salad surpreme seasoning (from McCormick).

    oops just saw you wanted mayo recipes only...

  • I keep mine pretty simple.  I do a pound of elbows, a little chopped onion, some chopped carrots and celery, 1-2 tablespoons of mayo (I don't like mayo and use just a little bit), a teaspoon of dry mustard, and salt and pepper to taste.
