Best Classic Veg All Pasta Salad Recipes

CLASSIC VEG-ALL SALAD

Classic Veg-All Salad image

A crisp cool salad with a surprising twist. My mom has made this for years and it's one of the few ways I will eat Veg-All as I don't care for mixed vegetables. I have to call for the ingredients every time so I finally decided to save the recipe. I hope you enjoy as much as I do! Please note cooking time is chill time.
