Skinny Pasta Salad
By SkinnyMom
With all of my potluck needs in mind, I came up with a quick and easy Skinny Pasta Salad recipe that could be shared easily. You can add extra vegetables or change up the dressing to your liking. Or you can even take this dish from a side to a lunch, or even a warm-weather dinner, by adding some lean protein like shrimp or chicken on top!
