Italian Pasta Salad Recipe

With Labor Day around the corner here is one of my fave, make-ahead side dish for any get together! This is more of a template than a recipe that can be both gluten free and dairy free .You can throw in WHATEVER ingredients sound good or simply add what you have on hand!
👉🏻Pick a pasta( 4 cups)
👉🏻Pick your veggies ( 2-4 cups)
👉🏻Pick a few fun toppings (cheese, nuts, seeds, protein etc.) (~1/2 cup)
👉🏻Pick your dressing (~3/4 cup)
✴️ Make this FUN starch+ veggie side when feeling in a rut with lunch prep.

Ingredients
  

Salad

  • 1 red onion chopped
  • 1 jar marinated artichokes chopped
  • 2 red bell peppers chopped
  • 1 package organic salami sliced into ribbons
  • 1 package fontina cheese, cubed
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil chopped
  • 1 jar Castelvetrano olives chopped
  • 1 large carrot chopped
  • 4 stalks celery chopped
  • 1 box fusilli pasta (I used cassava but @eatbanza or a lentil based pasta is also a great higher protein choice!)
  • 2 cups arugula

Dressing

  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/3 cup red wine vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic microplane
  • 1 tbsp oregano dried
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • pepper to taste

Instructions

Notes

You can also use store-bought dressing! 3/4 bottle of the Italian Pepperoncini @sirkensingtons vinaigrette is so good!
Other optional add in ingredients?
➡️Chickpeas
➡️Pepperoncini
➡️Roasted Red Peppers
➡️Fennel, chopped
Another Note:
Blood sugar stability is SO important for hormone health, reducing cravings, and for PCOS management!
💥Tips for making this pasta salad a blood sugar stabilizing meal?
👉🏻Make the pasta salad a side and pair with a palm full of protein and 1/2 plate of veggie slaw
👉🏻Use a bean based pasta for a protein boost
👉🏻Keep your pasta to veggie ratio at least equal!
👉🏻Add organic full fat cheese or nuts and seeds as a fat source
👉🏻If making the pasta salad a meal try topping over leafy greens and adding beans or a protein to the bowl!
