Made this for thanksgiving dinner thinking it sounded very refreshing. The flavor was not good. Just was not a hit with anyone.

A great way to introduce endive into your family's diet. The first time for us, and even my children loved this pasta salad!

This pasta salad was a hit at the bridal shower I threw. It was easy to make and I even made it the night before and stuck it in the fridge. The vegetables were so fresh and tasty with the vinegar and infused oil. It was a big hit!




Yummy!

I tried this recipe to go with some grilled salmon for my husband and I. He's not much of a pasta eater, but we both loved it. He even went back for seconds. It's easy to make and has a really nice presentation as well. I would definately make this to bring to a gathering. Yum!

It is amazing how there wasnt'pasta salad left by the end of the evening. I took this on vacation for the first evening at the beach condo. It packed well and chilled quickly and tasted fantastic. I had to share the recipe with all my friends.




Excellent

Very yummy; oddly enough, leftovers are even better than the original provided you add salt to the unwarmed dish.




Tasty and Easy, what more could you ask?

I omited the parsely and the shallots, cause I'm not a fan, and it was still really tasty - THumbs up!




Soooo Wonderful

This salad is a very big hit with my family and friends. It has become part of my personal cooking file. For another time saving tip I boil the asparagus at the same time I boil the pasta. In the same pot.




VERY GOOD!!!

I used a large shallot in the oil & poured the dressing over warm pasta; left out the peas & put in 1" red pepper strips .. very pretty & everyone gobbled it! Next time might add a crushed garlic clove to dressing. A very versatile dish which should appeal to anyone including young children.




Flavorful

I added sundried tomatoes simmered with a little chicken stock. I love the different textures and colors. Great presentation. I plan to use for a baby shower next month.

We love asparagus so were looking for a different way to serve it. I use many of Rachael's recipes on a regular basis but this one we did not like at all. My husband took one bite and said he would not eat any more.




Summer BBQ hit!

Everyone at our bar-b-que loved this dish! I tweaked the dressing slightly--you may want to as well.




A tad bit dissapointed

I think the pasta needs some sort of cheese in order to make this a 5 star meal. I don't know. It just wasn't the best, but it was still good.




A winner!

This is a great, very fresh tasting salad. I really thought the shallot oil gave a lot of flavor to the salad. I used rice wine vinegar because I just like it better than white. My family loved this. I will definately add this to my favorites!




Great summer dish

My man-friend and I loved this dish. It is a nice light side dish, great for cookouts. The crispy vegetables combine nicely with the pasta. We added shrimp to the recipe for a great light main dish.




Refreshing and easy to make

This dish was very easy to make and tasted light and refreshing. For a variation, I added minced garlic to the dressing to give it more flavor and left out the endive.

I made this yesterday for some friends and it was a big hit! It's not full of a TON of flavor, but it's very light and healthy and delicious. The only thing I did differently was that I added shredded cheese on the top (an Italian blend) and that helped. This is perfect for a light spring/summer lunch... bridal/baby shower... pot luck... you name it.




TRY THIS!
