PERFECT SPICY SAUSAGE PASTA SALAD
Gorgeous!! Morish!! ...and the easiest Pasta Salad to make by far!! One helping is never enough!! Prep time does not include the time taken to *cook the Pasta which usually takes about 10 minutes in the microwave. I add plenty of salt and a good dollop of Olive Oil to the water. (I find the Olive Oil flavours the Pasta) 'BEER STICKS' are about the size of Frankfurters, but the meat is like that of pepperoni OR salami. They are called Beer Sticks in N.Z. but there may well be another name used for them elsewhere.

Steps:
- Cook Pasta in the usual way.
- Drain.
- Mix together the Pasta, chopped Spring Onions and sliced Beer Sticks.
- Add Thousand Island Dressing and mix through.
Tips:
- Use high-quality sausage: The sausage is the star of this dish, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a sausage that is made with fresh, flavorful meat and has a good amount of spice.
- Don't overcook the sausage: Sausage is best when it is cooked through but still juicy. Overcooking it will make it dry and tough.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for bell peppers, onion, and celery, but you can use any vegetables that you like. Some other good options include carrots, zucchini, and mushrooms.
- Make sure the pasta is al dente: Al dente pasta is cooked through but still has a slight bite to it. This is the perfect texture for pasta salad.
- Use a flavorful dressing: The dressing is what brings all of the flavors of this dish together. Make sure to use a dressing that is flavorful and tangy.
- Serve the pasta salad cold: Pasta salad is best served cold. This allows the flavors to meld and the pasta to absorb the dressing.
Conclusion:
Spicy sausage pasta salad is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is packed with flavor and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try!
