Spring pasta salad
This fresh tasting pasta salad has just a hint of lemon for fresh taste that's a perfect pair with most any main dish! We paired this along side this citrus salmon . It was a perfect meal to get ready for spring! Ingredients: 1/2 pound (about 2 cups) dry pasta 3/4 cup mayonnaise 1 teaspoon mustard 1 teaspoon lemon zest 1/3 cup chopped green onions (whites and greens) 2 Tablespoon chopped fresh parsley 1 Tablespoon chopped fresh dill (or 1/2 teaspoon dried dill) Salt Freshly ground black pepper Instructions: Salt water and boil the ditalini pasta according to package directions. Remove from heat, drain and rinse. Mix in a large bowl: mayonnaise, mustard, lemon zest, green onions, parsley and dill. Reserve about 1/4 cup of sauce mixture. Mix in the cooked pasta while it is still warm. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Chill for at least 2 hours. As the macaroni sits the mayonnaise will be absorbed, before serving ad in the reserved sauce.
