Lemon Basil Pasta Salad
"Now here’s a Pasta Salad that’s especially great, and especially unique to Trader Joe’s. In fact, the recipe used for Trader Joe’s Lemon Basil Pasta Salad is the same recipe made frequently by one of our very own Buyers! Farfalle—affectionately known as bow tie pasta—fulfills the “pasta” part of this Pasta Salad and is, in our opinion, the best shape for a pasta salad. It’s just the right size to pair with the accompanying ingredients of peas, shredded zucchini, shredded spinach, and asiago cheese. When tossed in a light basil lemonette (A.K.A. lemon vinaigrette), the pasta holds the perfect amount of dressing. Squeeze the included lemon wedge on top, and you’ll have a wonderfully refreshing dish at the ready. Lemon Basil Pasta Salad is ideal for bringing along to a barbecue or potluck, packs up perfectly with sandwiches and lemonade for a lovely little picnic in the park, and makes an excellent and effortless lunch option for school or work."
