For the easiest summer pasta salad, build flavor as you go, starting with marinated zucchini and onions, and ending with a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
Most of us have some sort of preconceived notion of what we think a pasta salad is, and that notion is not always flattering. There are the mayo-heavy renditions we’ve all avoided at picnics, and overcooked twirly noodles loaded with antipasto ingredients. Being from the Midwest, the only pasta salad I grew up with was a Miracle Whip–based elbow noodle tuna salad.
Keep it colorful My pasta salad involves vegetables; lots of vegetables. Sweet, plump cherry tomatoes add an acidic sweetness, and several types of sliced summer squash add a juicy crunch. Kalamata olives offer a rich, punchy bitterness. Torn fresh mozzarella adds a nice buttery and fatty texture, while grated parm adds umami depth and creaminess. Showering on the fresh basil and oregano just before serving preserves the fresh potency the herbs offer.
