This has become my new go-to pasta salad recipe. I've made it exactly as written, which is delicious, but I've also made a few adjustments that I really like. I oven roast tomatoes for a long time so they are almost like sundried tomatoes, but not quite as tart. Last time I didn't have balsamic vinegar so I used a sort of caesar italian dressing, which I really liked. You really can't go wrong with this recipe and it's nice that you can make small adjustments as needed and it's still fantastic!

I used this recipe this weekend for 4th of July and it was a great hit. The only change I made was leave out the pepperoncine peppers because I did not have them and added seeded, peeled cucumber cut small. Everyone loved it. The balsamic vingar was great did not have a problem with color like other reviews. Also used a tri color pasta and made it the day before and it was still great.

Great pasta salad without the heaviness of mayo. Based on other reviews, I added some blanched broccoli and artichoke hearts. I also substituted kalamata olives for the black ones. Everyone loved it! The only issue was the dubious glances everyone gave it at first due to the balsamic vinegar staining the whole salad an unappealing color. I am making this again this weekend for a barbecue and will take another reviewer's advice and try white balsamic vinegar.

I could not find tri-color bowtie - in my local market but i followed the recipe minus the sundried tomatoes.. instead fresh tomatoes and bell peppers and another cup of whole black olives... it was a hit!!!

Great change from your ordinary pasta salad! Even my neighbor who hates ethnic food loved it!! However I would add much more salt and more vegetables than it called for. Otherwise I will be making this again!

Made this salad as written, only substitution I made was to use Ricotta Salata in place of the feta cheese. Would have given it five stars but the salad did not look like the picture. The balsamic vinegar made the salad too brown. As we eat with our eyes first, this salad did not look very appealing. Will try it again, using white balsamic or a champagne vinegar.

Like other reviewers, I added some sugar, and artichoke hearts. I also added some chopped zucchini for a little bit of crunch. Everyone loved it. Several pople told me it was the best pasta salad they ever had. 4 stars as its written, 5 stars after the tweaks

Very good dressing; however, even better with 1-2 tsp. sugar added.

This was a good recipe... I prefer a red wine vinegar to the balsamic.
