    Vegetarian Pasta Salad is that side dish for when you are grilling, throwing a party or having a picnic in the park. This one is loaded up with different veggies like celery, red onions, carrots, scallions, red peppers and even radishes and cucumbers for a great fresh clean flavor and texture.

    INSTANT POT VEGETARIAN PASTA SALAD

    One of the great things about an is how easy it makes things. This Vegetarian Pasta salad has just a 4 minute cook time. Basically, throw in your pasta and fill it to just cover pasta with water. Fasten the lid onto the and set the timer for 4 minutes. It really is that easy.

    Keep in mind that there really are no rules for thisVegetarian Pasta Salad. If you want to omit or add any certain veggies go right ahead. One thing though that I think is really important is that fact that I add FRESH dill. Not the bottled dried kind. The fresh dill makes a big difference in flavor for this dish and I do not recommend skipping it or trying to replace it with its dried counterpart.

    As for the dressing for thisEasy Pasta Salad, I choose to keep it simple. Most of the time I will use about half of a cup of my favorite bottled Italian dressing and just toss the pasta salad in that. You can go ahead and make your own but then it doesn’t make this dish as simple.
