Let’s Make Creamy Vegetable Pasta Salad

  2. Whisk together the ingredients for the sauce and set it aside.
  3. Chop the vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Fold the sauce into the cooled pasta.
  5. Toss the veggies with the creamy pasta.

Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips

  • To stop the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pan while cooking, stir it after 1-minute to loosen any noodles that may be starting to stick.
