Very Veggie Pasta Salad
1 Points
This Very Veggie Pasta Salad recipe inverts the ratio of pasta to vegetables, and is easy to customize. And it is just 1 weight watchers point per cup! Recipe makes 10 cups.
Swap in any veggies you have on hand, and try different dressings to find the brand you like best.

Make the flavor of the bottled dressing really pop by pouring it into a small bowl and stirring in some fresh chopped herbs.
Grilling tonight and wanted to have some pasta salad as a side. Made with Banza , fresh basil, tomatoes, bell pepper, red onion and I used skinny girl poppyseed dressing and fresh lemon for the dressing.
