    this recipe was fantastic. i made the vinaigrette exactly as stated, but the trick to making it taste right was to adjust the olive oil until it isn't too acidic. i added a teaspoon of sugar, and incorporated the dill into the dressing before i shook it. i also added some artichoke hearts and it was delicious! i also added feta instead of ricotta salata to give some body to the dressing and make it "stick" to the pasta and veggies. worked perfectly.

    nice change from vinegarettes since this one has no vinegar. Nice and adaptable....hubby does not like peas for whatever reason so I just left out the peas and used extra asparagus. Only real change I made was to use half the dill. It just sounded like a LOT and I was afraid to use that much. Took it to a picnic/was a big hit

    Delicious pasta salad! Everyone loved this dressing. You can adapt it any way you want. I added the dressing to pasta, grape tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella, fresh basil and black olives. My family loved it and I will definitely be making this again.

    This was really great...but I only used a TBSP of dill and it was still very strong so I'm wondering if the 1/2 cup is a typo!

    This was absolutely wonderful! I made it tonight for the first time for my family and they were impressed.
    I couldn't find Ricotta salata in Seattle or the jar of roasted yellow peppers so I roasted my own and used Feta instead....wow...it was so good. I will make this from now on. Thank you.

    This pasta salad is amazing! The entire family loved it, even my 7 year old son! The salad is wonderful as left overs as the flavors really had time to marry. What a wonderful dish. We will definitely make it again!

    Man oh man is this good! My husband loved it and so did I. Felt very virtuous when I pushed back from the table. I saved about 2 TB of the dressing and put it on salmon right before putting into a 450 oven. Cooked the fish for 10 minutes then rested it for another 5-10. Absolutely wonderful together. I did use Ronzoni Smart Taste Penne as I have to watch my "white" pasta intake.

    This pasta salad was AMAZING! I love the cavatappi noodles...they are so fun! The dish is so flavorful and colorful. I followed the recipe to the T and was delish. I may add some edamame as someone else mentioned. The dressing is out of this world and just the right amount of ingredients. We used a large shallot and it was a little over bearing. So be cautious of the size shallot that you use. A beautiful side to accompany some grilled chicken...will def make again and again!!
