Can I use a different type of pasta?

Sure, go for it! My personal preference is ditalini although any similarly small pasta shape will work.

Can I make this in advance?

Yes! This pasta salad can can be made a day ahead then stored covered, in the refrigerator.

Helpful Tools and Equipment:

Colander – I like that this one has tiny holes; good for rice as well as pasta.

Mixing bowl – I love the pretty colors of this lidded set.

Serving bowl – This is a good all-purpose bowl in a classic style.
