Classic Pasta Salad Recipe + Summer Party Set GIVEAWAY ...

Today I have a great recipe + a GIVEAWAY perfect for Summer entertaining! I recently teamed up with ZAK! Designs and wrote an article for them on ?keeping cool in the summer heat.? To help me get started they sent their insulated Tubbies to work with, which I used to keep ice cream and pasta salad nice and chilled. Now they?re giving?one away as part of?a summer party ice cream set, which I?ll tell you about in a minute.

First, I want to share one of my favorite pot luck side dishes with you ? a Pasta Salad recipe. I got this from a friend about 10 years ago after she served it at a backyard cookout. I love the creaminess, the crunch, and the perfect balance of flavors, and I?think you will too.

Classic Pasta Salad

• 16 oz box pasta ? elbow macaroni works well, as does petite penne
• 5 hard boiled eggs, chopped
• 1/2 medium onion, diced
• 1/2 green pepper, diced
• 4 stalks celery, diced
• 1 cup shredded cabbage
• 1/2 tsp. celery seed

Dressing

• 1 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/2 TBsp mustard
• 1/4 cup sugar
