Reviews
I doubled everything but the dressing and it turned out amazing!
Very easy to make and my guest LOVED IT! I will definitely make this again.
This turned out well, but as other reviewers have stated, it does make a lot. I used mini pepperoni, grape tomatoes, and subbed mozzarella for the Parmesan cheese.
Made it as written, except that I used heart shaped pasta for Valentine’s Day. We enjoyed this – but it does make a lot. Would be great for a pot luck get together. I took a bowl to my friend to share, as it was a bit much for just the four of us.
I would use less carrots–they were over-powering. Otherwise, this was good and well-received.
I didn’t use the olives (personal preference I suppose). But this was great!
This was a great recipe – however what is the serving size? The nutritional information use to be an option when I printed but no longer.
Very easy cheap and everyone loves it! Even the next day.
