PRETTY PASTA SALAD WITH PEAS, PARMESAN AND HAM
This is a wonderful pasta salad which I have been making for at least 15 years. In fact when I first moved to Greece and my mother visited me a year later, one of the first things she asked me was about how to make this recipe. I have made it for buffets and even for my engagement party and it tastes as good as it looks which is saying something! Enjoy.

Steps:
- Boil pasta in a large pot of salted water until firm. (I always add a stock cube to the water to improve the flavour-Maggi pasta stock cubes are ideal.).
- Boil or microwave the peas until tender.
- Add drained pasta, peas, parsley and ham in a large bowl and toss well.
- Shake dressing ingredients together in a jam jar and pour over pasta salad.
- Add parmesan cheese and serve.
- Note: This tastes great the next day.
