LEMONY DILL SALMON PASTA SALAD
Most pasta salads have a mayonnaise base, which I thought was too heavy for a salmon pasta salad. I swapped in a vinaigrette of sorts, with just a dusting of freshly grated Parmesan cheese for a touch of indulgence. It's the perfect way to use any leftover salmon.

FIESTA PASTA SALAD WITH DILL PICKLES
This dill pickle pasta salad salad has so many different colors that it looks as though there is confetti in it. There is a thousand variations to this salad! My mother adds ham and asparagus to it. I usually use tri-colored pasta in this salad to add even more color. Also I serve green onions on the side. All my friends and family love this so much. I don't think I would be invited on our annual family camping trip if I didn't bring this salad.

CHEDDAR DILL AND VEGGIE PASTA SALAD
Great summer side salad. I use extra sharp cheddar, because in my world, the sharper the better. The recipe calls for fresh dill, which I never have on hand so I always use dry, probably about 1 teaspoon, to taste. I do not remember where I got this, oops, so if someone knows, please let me know so I can put it here! Time to chill not included in cooktime.
