    This salad is great, I've made it multiple times. I usually double the oil-vinegar-lemon juice dressing, just use basil (no parsley and add some extra crispy bacon chopped up. Extra cheese doesn't hurt either. Freshly squeezed lemon juice is really important to keep the flavor bright. Make sure you grate the mozzarella fresh as well, as store bought pre-grated cheese won't melt into the pasta the way you want it to.

    Loved this macaroni salad. I substituted scamorza for the mozzarella. It added a smokey flavor.. The red wine vinegar was really smart., it gave the subtle sweetness to the dressing and the herbs were just lovely.

    I just made this recipe. I did tweak it just a tiny bit I added a dash of sugar to the dressing for me it was tiny bit to acidic .But just a dash . And I doubled the recipe. I tasted it right after it was done and it is delicious, Fresh , and with the dish being warm and the mozzarella being partially melted just topped it off ,definately recommend this recipe for a hot day .
