Caprese Pasta Salad - The Perfect Summertime Recipe!

[@BXMurphy]

Thank you for the idea, Laura! I hope everybody crushes the "Thanks" button and puts a couple of bucks in the tip jar.

Laura saving summer every year one salad at a time

[@Superfatcat2525]

Lovely fresh salad! Regarding the Pesto. I purchase the large plastic container at Cost Co. I freeze the entire jar in my freezer and it is pretty easy to scoop out what I need as I need some. Never goes to waste! I learned this from the comment section here on KZbin.

This could be the basis for a budget-friendly meal! Thank you for sharing.

[@alee9961]

Looks delish and look forward to making it. My go-to pasta is Mini Farfalle for salads. 😊

[@rneustel388]

I really could eat anything with orecchiette in it!!

[@susanb5058]

Same! There’s just something about that pasta shape 😋

Thanks for a fresh summery pasta salad recipe! - I can't wait to pull those tomatoes fresh off the plants in the fall! - Cheers!

[@AlmightyAphrodite]

This looks like another winner, just like the blt avocado dressing salad (episode 1041 for those interested), which is my all time favorite pasta salad! Definitely know what were having tonight 😎👌

[@BlueberryGirl723]

Just love this salad! We sometimes use pasta shells with it, and we add cilantro to it also. So delicious! Great anytime of the year.

[@Jezeppi1]

Laura, Why are many Italian dishes so much more tasty when they have been refrigerated for a time ?? ❤ Joe

[@ShanePatterson-ne4ks]

Laura I have made this pasta salad for years. I have tweck it different ways. Thanks for giving us this recipe

[@racheller.4289]

Absolutely beautiful! I can't wait to make it. I made your antipasto pasta salad last week and it was a huge hit. Thank you for these simple but perfectly delicious summer ideas. I struggle coming up with new warm weather ideas even though I love to cook. Burgers, hot dogs, macaroni salad & grilled chicken are great this time of year but get boring pretty quick. I'm loving these quick videos ( in addition to all your content ) ❤ Thank you for making our families poolside meals new & exciting

[@blondebritt2365]

Laura you definitely have done this video! I made this salad every year with my basil. Thank you for the updated version!! ❤

[@DegrassiInstantStar]

Another video that gives me the feels.... and it looks absolutely delicious!!

[@amandak6986]

Caprese salad is my family's fav! I usually add red onion. I've never added pasta. I'll try that next time.

[@cookingwithkooks341]

I was a chef for years. your content is entertaining, mouth-watering, and informative.

[@NataEw]

[@robertschiavone6080]

You make preparing food so easy ! Can you please teach my wife how to cook ! ❤

[@hollyroche1232]

Looks so good! Will definitely be making this. Thank you! Totally unrelated but I had a "cubano" sandwich for the first time recently and it was from a food truck in Greensboro, NC. It was so good! Wondering what your take would be on it & if you'd share a video with us..?

It’s a really good recipe!!! I made it for the women’s ministry

[@sbrmsbrm9502]

I want an invitation to one of those mommy/daughter playdates. I have son but he will play😂

[@anngosda7333]

We haven’t had any orecchiette in our stores here since Covid I miss it

[@Lala-4597]

Yummy!!

[@johannacollins4721]

Delicious

[@MegaMissions]

Would a shell pasta work for this salad if you can't find orrechetta?

[@lauriegelinas257]

I could see little pepperoni bites in there as well;)

[@DomesticChurchMedia]

I’m going to make this for our family 4th of July party. How many does this serve?

[@merandac1985]

What brand of orecchiette do you prefer? I notice they are always stuck together.

[@rilitos]

Can you make this pasta salad a day ahead?

[@tlapo9671]

Can this sit overnight for a work potluck?

[@snehacactus]

Would orzo be a good replacement for orecchiette?

[@aris1956]

"Orzo" is a type of pasta that is too small. Here in Italy, no one makes Caprese pasta salad with pasta-orzo. With pasta-orzo (which we call “Pastina”) we make pasta in broth. For Caprese pasta salad you could also use “Farfalle”.

[@MidiGuerra]

What balsamic is that??

[@jennglow4647]

😋

[@mariaolker]

Do the tomatoes make it all soupy?

[@adriannahuezo6112]

Yummy 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Amf-d4c]

How much pasta will you use for this salad if you’re having 36 people? I’m making it for 30 on Thursday and got three pounds of orecchiette. Maybe will do 2 boxes only. It’s being served with a few other dishes.

[@johnnynguyen7229]

Good to know that caprese is actually pronounced “ca-pre-zay” and not “ca-pris” 😭

[@erinnkemp]

Dialic

[@aris1956]

Who pronounces it that way? Perhaps Americans, just as they also pronounce other Italian words in their own way. ;) “ Caprese” is an Italian word and must be pronounced in an original way. “Capris”, among other things, it doesn't even sound Italian.

[@cc4261]

İt actually is „cap-reh-seh“

[@petersampodiras6590]

@@cc4261 Exactly! God only knows why americans have so much trouble saying this word 😄

[@johnnynguyen7229]

Why are some of y’all bothered 😭 Sorry, I must have skipped the day of my mandated Italian class at my American school when we were going over how to pronounce “caprese.” Always grateful for Laura’s channel for exposing me to Italian words and not being so condescending about it. You learn something new every day.

[@chidrole]

👍🇨🇦

[@Divamarja_CA]

You could probably “meat” this up with adding some pancetta, perhaps?! But if not, this also looks phenomenal.

[@dAfoodie101]

maybe diced salami?

[@erikajanelle2128]

I’m early!! This would be a great recipe for my family bbq next weekend, thanks Laura!
