I took a poll over on my Facebook page on which recipe I should cook/bake up next over on my YouTube Channel, Talmadge Homemade. Overwhelmingly, this yummy pasta salad won – I think It’s because Labor Day Picnics are right around the corner. 😉

This recipe was developed by my sister out of the desire to replicate a pasta salad she sources at a local Italian Deli in Connecticut. Her version is loved and devoured by everyone in our family – it’s easy to make is delicious!

Join me in the kitchen on my YouTube Channel, 𝑇𝑎𝑙𝑚𝑎𝑑𝑔𝑒 𝐻𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑚𝑎𝑑𝑒 — with Ryker 🐾 by my side and a visit from his sassy sister, Daisy-Mae. 😉🎥

Yummy Pasta Salad

• 1 LB Rotini pasta
• 1 Red onion, diced
• 2 Ribs Celery, diced
• 1/2 tsp course ground black pepper
• 3/4 tsp sea salt
• 1 1/4 tsp garlic powder
• Flat leaf parsley, chopped (a lot of it!)
• Mayonnaise, to your liking

Bring 4-6 quarts of water to a rolling boil, add salt to taste. Add pasta to boiling water and stir gently. Return to a boil.  For authentic “al dente” pasta, boil uncovered, stirring occasionally for 7-9 minutes. Remove from heat, drain and rinse.

Into a large mixing bowl, add the cooked pasta and all other ingredients. Mix well and serve!
