Pasta has never really been my food. At the restaurant it would be my last choice. Though, when I happened to be visiting my boyfriend's uncle, I couldn't stop eating that delicious seafood pasta, cooked by his Italian wife. So I admit, that can be super delicious.
On the other hand, it is hard to get fresh seafood here in a supermarket, so, in my opinion, the best one could do with frozen stuff is
this Mediterranian pasta I wrote about before (check out new pics ;). I sometimes do it with the double mussels portion - quick for feeding a big family.
But let's go back to the pasta salad! Tried it once in Germany. Not good. A while ago I even considered potato or pasta salad as an offensive usage of ingredients. Not anymore, haha. When doing grocery shopping, I ran on a great deal for magnificently sweet cherry tomatoes. My parents, unfortunately, do not consider salad as dinner. That's why I have come up with an idea to combine a salad and a full meal making pasta salad without "killing" the royal taste of cherry tomatoes :)
