I made this Green Goddess Pasta Salad right after we got back from vacation, almost a month ago.
For one, recently when I get ‘plugged in’, as Wesley would say, I end up catching up on emails, comments, and social media, then chat with my blogging buddies. Not that all that isn’t necessary, but then when I get all that done, I don’t want to sit any more to write a post.
So the next time I sit down to write a post, guess what? I get on email, social media and chat with my blogging buddies first.
It’s a vicious cycle…
So before our Summer veggies are gone, I’d better get this recipe to you.
I’ve mentioned it before, I’m a carb girl. I love pasta, rice, bread. But, I’m trying to eat more vegetables and I don’t want a bowl of vegetables or salad every meal. I thought if I combined a salad with some pasta that at least it would be better than a complete bowl full of pasta!
Enter: Green Goddess Pasta Salad!
It’s heart-healthy and satisfying!

Paula, Adding Cheese stuffed Ravioli is a good option. You get the satisfaction of eating something healthy and at the same time satisfying your craving for pasta. Great post. Will be trying it very soon…:)

You had me at Green Goddess 🙂 This looks so delicious–and healthy (a definite win win). Looks like the perfect way to keep cool these hot summer days. Thanks for sharing!
Paula says
Thank you, Amy, yes, it was so easy I actually made and photographed in less than 15 minutes (but I already had the dressing made). I was prob motivated by hunger at the time 🙂 Thanks for stopping by.

I can’t wait to try this one, Paula! The photo is beautiful. Is this with your new camera?
Paula says
No, sadly, on these pics I hadn’t studied enough to operate it. I just posted a pic I took today with new camera in the NNIB group. Tell me what you think of it.
Oh, yeah, this salad was good, the sea salt and pepper almonds made it 🙂
