I cooked this for my parents, and my mom is allergic to shallots, so I used garlic and onion instead. This may have changed the flavor of the dressing, but, if you use this alternative, the dressing needs only about 1/4 C EVOO. I also added the juice of half a lemon, and ~2 tablespoons of "VerJooz" which is a Cabernet Franc verjuice. Next time, I won't even use the lemon, and use about 3 tablespoons VJ instead. If you can find the VerJooz, pick up a bottle - though it is only made in New York. It is great to use in a lot of recipes when a tangy flavor is desired. I also topped the salad with some shaved Parmesan - Reggiano. Finally, I served this dish cold, making it great for the summer heat.

I also left out the endive, and substituted red onion for shallots. I felt like the dressing was a little oily, so I added a bit of plain greek yogurt. Tasty, but I'm not wild about the original recipe.

I've made this three times now and have tweaked the recipe a bit. I added more vinegar, halved grape tomatoes, a few bacon bits, and omitted the endive and peas. The salad tastes so much better if you use fresh parsley. I'm definitely going to take the suggestion of adding garlic to the dressing. My husband doesn't normally like salads, but he loves this one. It's almost better the next day.

I wish I would have made this recipe without the endive... it's so bitter and in my opinion just throws off the dish entirely. I liked the idea of a leafy pasta salad but the flavors were just off. I added some shredded Parmesan to try to spruce it up a bit which helped but I would not make this again.

Is there any place on the website that gives the nutritional value information for any of these recipes?

My girlfriend made this for me and added Shrimp to make it a main course. It was very light and healthy, I'm even eating it the next day and I don't normally do leftovers. You will be the star of the BBQ.

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 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.
