Thanks for your question! I don’t actually know the recipe for the pasta salad. Someone brought it, and I included the photo in order to show that simple food is great for picnics.

I just took a closer look, though, and here is my guess on how to recreate the salad: Cook off your favorite pasta until it’s just al dente, and rinse it in cold water to cool. Drain. Toss the cold pasta with halved cherry tomatoes, a little grated parmesan, and enough olive oil to lightly coat everything. Add a few tablespoons of minced fresh herbs like parsley, basil, or chives. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

You can also make a simple, delicious pasta salad by tossing cold pasta in pesto sauce. Add some halved cherry tomatoes to dress it up. You can’t go wrong!
