I couldnt believe it when my daughter gave me this recipe. She had never been able to cook. She is an environmental engineer and we always teased her, saying she was a genius with hazardous waste and waste water, but a real basket case in the kitchen. I have since eaten my words and her cooking! This is the best pasta salad Ive ever tasted and super easy to make.…Sue Blansett
