The heat has transformed our table. Salads and, in general, lighter dishes now take on more prominence on the weekly menu than those we prepared months ago. Salads are a more summery way of presenting pasta; yesterday we were preparing this at home pasta salad with cherrys and fresh cheese.
Simple and quick to prepare, so are cold pasta salads. During the time the pasta is cooked, we can take advantage of preparing the rest of the ingredients: cherrys, fresh cheese, tuna and olives. It is an ideal salad to take to the beach in a tupper and it is fantastic with a little mayonnaise.
Pasta salad with cherries and fresh cheese
The pasta salad with cherrys and fresh cheese is served very cold and is therefore ideal to complete our menu at this time of year.
