    Instructions

    1. Prepare the pasta salad dressing: add olive oil, vinegar, Italian seasoning, mustard, garlic, sea salt and pepper to a small bowl. Whisk vigorously to combine, set aside.

    2. Add Pacific Foods® Organic Vegetable Broth to a large pot and bring to a boil. Add dried pasta and cook according to package directions. Drain and add to a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to combine. Place in the refrigerator to chill while prepping and chopping other ingredients. Feel free to cook pasta 1-2 hours ahead of time, if you’d like.

Drizzle with pasta salad dressing and toss to combine. Serve pasta salad immediately or cover and place in the refrigerator to chill for 1-2 hours. When chilled, serve and enjoy!

    4. Leftover pasta salad will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
