Pasta salad my friends! Creamy, fresh and loaded with lots of goodness. Back home in Germany, creamy pasta salads were always my highlights at barbecues. So I thought, why not making it more often. Especially since I had some leftover pasta from the day before and really did not know what to do with it, well until now!
