Cavatappi amatriciana pasta salad

Pasta and macaroni Italian cuisine

I was inspired to make Cavatappi Amatriciana Pasta Salad by the popular side dish at one of our favorite restaurants, Carrabba’s. My secret ingredient? Sun-dried tomato pesto in the dressing! This easy pasta salad is a perfect picnic side dish for burgers, sandwiches or even cold chicken. Let’s have a picnic!
