Another amazing recipe from Giada! I’ve prepared many of here recipes…all great! I used whole wheat pasta instead, and sour cream as didn’t have yogurt. Basil and tarragon, and juice- zest 1 lemon. This will be my go to pasta salad for summer! Enjoy watching her programs Sunday morning on foodnetwork. Thank you for sharing your great recipes and family life! Inspired me to travel to Italy.
