This cold pasta salad is the perfect side dish or meal to enjoy year-round. It is especially refreshing when the weather is hot and you want to enjoy a simple salad.  As you know, all our recipes have to be two things, delicious and simple.

Last week was very busy with school starting and we enjoyed this transition time with football and food this weekend. I love that it is still summer for a few more weeks and am ready for a cool down in the weather.

This Vegetable Spaghetti salad is perfect to make any time of year for dinner or lunch and is great for a barbecue or picnic too!

How Do You Make Dill Pasta Salad?

It is easy! All you do is cut some fresh peppers, celery, and tomatoes, boil a pot of pasta and top with some salad dressing.

Tips for this recipe:

• You can change up the noodles and use linguini, bowtie or any other type of pasta, including whole wheat pasta.
• I like to use half of two different color bell peppers for added flair. You can also use mini peppers for this recipe.

This salad makes a great side dish, but you could also add some chicken or shrimp and make it a meal very easily!

If you are packing this salad to take to a potluck, I like to change up the colors of the bell peppers for a fun variety.
