COBB PASTA SALAD
COBB PASTA SALAD
I had a knock-down drag-out fight with a big bowl of rainbow-colored hard-boiled eggs and. . . salad happened.
The ever-popular cobb salad reinvented in pasta salad form.
It has most of the same classic flavors everyone loves with small seashell pasta, the beat-up eggs, crumbled bacon, red onion, avocado, tomatoes and feta (or blue cheese) dressed in a red wine vinaigrette.
Everything you could ever want in a pasta salad.
